    I am so sorry for your loss, such an awful thing to have happened. :( At least the guy had the courtesy to come and tell you, so you could do all that was possible to help her. Run free at the Bridge, Buffy xxx
  • so sorry to hear that, but at least the driver knocked so she didn't suffer for long before you could help her. Poor little mite.

    So sorry to hear that, what a shock, at least you could take her to the vets yourself and not be wondering how long she had lain there and if finding her sooner would have helped. Good of him to come and tell you himself.

    RIP Buffy xx
  • Very sorry to hear that! I hope she didn't suffer for too long. It's always upsetting to lose a cat that way, I've been there before and know what it's like to have that whirlwind or shock. You have my deepest sympathies. RIP Buffy xxx
  • Awwwww I'm so sorry to hear that, what a horrible shock (((hugs)))

    RIP Buffy, play hard in the sunshine with your new pals, in the beautiful fields at the bridge xx

    I'm so sorry to read this.

    Run free little Buffy and know you'll meet your mum again one day xx
  • Poor you and poor Buffy, but poor man, I wouldn't wish that feeling on anyone, he must have been beside himself telling you, but at least he had the humanity to do it. x
