O/T... my little Smudge was killed at the weekend.

amee, 22 September, 2008 at 10:19 Posted on Planning 0 8

Sorry to start the morning off with this but am at work and nearly in tears. ☹️

My cat was knocked down by a car at the corner of our street on Saturday. We had been out shopping and when walking back saw a man step out onto the road whilst looking at something lying on the pavement. I knew straight away it was her and we ran over, she was lying in a pool of blood.

I know it sounds silly and maybe melodramatic to some but she was like our little kid. She was so human like it was crazy and the whole street loved her. I feel esp bad as when we had got home from my dads she was asleep on the sofa and as we were going to be putting a flea bomb off we had to put her out. She didn't want to go but I carried on and put her out. I wish so much I had left it till Sunday and left her sleeping.

Was coming to terms with it today, although the house feels like there is something missing, until I tried to log onto my machine. I had used her name in the password and it set me off again. [:'(]

    Oh that's so sad. You weren't to know the outcome of putting her out early, I hope she didn't suffer too much.

    Sorry to hear about Smudge and don't beat yourself up about putting her out as you weren't to know and the same could have happened just as easily on the Sunday.

    I know how you feel about losing a pet as I've lost quite a few now and it does feel like a part of you is missing.

    RIP Smudge and say hello to my Tigger for me!
