Sad Day :(

nzmum

My DF and I adopted a little cat three years ago and we fell in love with it. I wasnt a big fan of it due to my allergies but it was loving at keeping me company in bed when I was sick. We came home last night to find it in a plastic bag on our doorstep. Someone had hit our cat and left no details or anything We took it down to the vet and got it cremated. I am so distraught at the moment. Why would someone just leave and not write a not or something. That was our furry baby

So sorry for your loss. My cats are indoor only just because I worry about something happening to them outside. It makes me sad to hear that.

I think our next one will be an indoor one! I am not dealing with this again. It makes me sick that someone would do that!!!

Oh, I'm so sorry!   I have two cats, and can't imagine coming home to a scene like that. I'm a little horrified that someone would just leave a cat on a doorstep with no explanation (

My guess is the person who bagged your cat up was a neighbor who found it. The person that hit it was probably a stranger who probably just thought it was a stray and didn't care. That's sad, but some people just view animals as animals and don't care about them.

I thought I hit a cat once on my way to work and I was so freaked out I went around the block to come back but nothing was there. So either I hit it and it was ok enough to get out of there or I missed it. Either way, it killed me all day thinking I hurt it.

I'm sorry for your loss. With an outside cat you are lucky to even have someone put "it" on your doorstep. Usually they disappear and you have no idea what happened to "it". What would a note have honestly helped? It's not their fault honestly, and they were being extremely generous by returning the body that they knew somehow belonged on your doorstep.

Of course a note would've helped. Just even "I'm sorry" on a piece of paper. We went around last night and asked our neighbours and they said they hadn't touched it. The cat did have our address on its collar so that's why we think it got to our door.

I'm so sorry.  Our neighbors have 2 outdoor cats and I'm really attached to them (they are like dogs and run to you purring, wanting their bellies scratched).  One of them went missing and they haven't found him.  I was so sad, I can only imagine how sad you must be when it is actually your fur-baby.

I also wouldn't be surprised if someone else found the cat that had already been hit and brought it to you.  Poor thing.

Oh my gosh I am so sorry! I can't even imagine what your feeling. ((Hugs))

OMG. I'm so so sorry for your loss. I have a six-month old kitten and I just can't even imagine the hurt and anguish you're going through.
