Am so sorry to hear about your little cat - I hope that they are okay. This must be awful. I cant imagine how I would feel if one of my fur-babies was hit by a car.

I had an awful experience about a month ago, I had my 2 year old nephew in the car, and we hit a cat - it bolted out straight in front of me, and I tried to stop, but if I had swerved I would have hit on-coming traffic and with my nephew in the car I couldnt take that risk. I was DEVASTED, the poor little thing was dead, (I think it died instantly - for the record I WASNT speeding, I was only going 45, and it was a very busy road) I moved it to the side of the road, and then got my nephew out of the car and started knocking on doors looking for the owners. I was in tears, my nephew was starting to get distressed about me being upset so I only managed to get to 4 or 5 houses, no-one was home in any of them and I didnt know what else to do. I felt so awful, and DH had to calm me down on the phone. If the cat had been injured and still alive I would have taken it straight to the local vets, but as it wasnt I didnt know what to do, so just made sure it was off the road and left it there. I still feel really guilty about it and think I should have done something else - and in hindsight I prob should have rang the local vets and told them, or put an ad in the local paper.
