That's terrible!! I'm so sorry

I have never felt safe about keeping cats outside. People are so careless and cruel.

*hugs*

THANKS soo much..gonna miss the little creep. Would have loved to have kept him in..but we live on like 5 acres of just forest and swampland, not counting the neighbors land..so..no fair to keep him in, but...was hoping he would have kept to that.but..he hand to cross the road....so...thinking hard on getting another one..dont want to do that all over again..and we still have the other cat..soo ..not worrying about it yet.
And ya...just hoping they didnt mean to hurt him and that he didnt suffer..he was such a good boy.

I know what you mean about wanting the kitty to wander. Would it be much to put up a fenced area where kitties can stay in and still roam outside?

All things granted, there's nothing bad about an entirely indoor cat. They have great lifespans, and my cats have always been indoors and are very content. It just seems no matter where you are, you're taking a risk. Urban/suburban areas have traffic, rural areas have larger animals, and both of these things seem to seep into the other areas at times. I couldn't wish the heartache of losing a pet because of those factors on anyone.

Youd have to make a REALLLLY high wall to keep cats in...but yah..theres a risk no matter what you do..just glad he had some fun while he was alive..I will always think of him when I see a grasshopper..he LOVED to catch those things last summer.

It's for that reason that our pets are all house-cats - they never go out at all. Safer indoors...

Awwe I'm sorry for your loss, he looks like a cutie. *hugs* We lost a neighbor's friendly cat to a car this spring. He would come visit us, he even ran into the house once. His name was Smokey.

he looks like the cat I used to have, ironically, he was sickly and he died a few months later after getting him. The cat I have now, she is never ill except having periodontal disease which affected her teeth and the other time when got spayed. She is nearly this year.

What a dark day this is, despite the rays of the sun shining on us, how such dark auras can consume all that we know and love, how sickened minds can devastate entire families.
