Simon+Kat Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) Woke up today at around 4pm ( i work nights) to find a note saying my cat Theo had been run over and was with my nieghbour. I was expecting a trip to the vet. When i went to see the nieghbour she had the bad news that Theo had been killed crossing the road near my house, a kind girl stopped her car and moved his body to the side of the road and then started ringing doorbells to find the owner. I was asleep with my earplugs in so i didnt hear her ring mine. It looks like it was a pretty quick death thankfully, no broken body, just head injury. I will miss my mental, stubborn, hilarious and beautiful little ragdoll monster loads. Never known a cat like him. Please guys, lets keep our speed down in residential areas (I know most of us Z-ers are good lads and lasses), and encourage our friends to do the same. Edited February 16, 2013 by Simon+Kat Quote
Will370z Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Lovely looking cat, sorry to hear the news. Never easy when you lose a well loved pet. Quote
twobears Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 He was beautiful. I am sorry for your loss Quote
Ekona Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 So sorry to hear this matey, I've two of my own and would be distraught if anything happened to either. It's partly the reason I keep them as housecats, the fear of them being run over. He looked gorgeous, that's a great photo of him. Quote
FUG Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Beautiful cat sorry to hear this bad news Quote
Voodoo Vix Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) So sorry to hear this, i always worry when my babies go out, it's one good thing about having a three legged cat, he can't get over the high fences so stays in the back garden Edited February 16, 2013 by Voodoo Vix Quote
stuarty Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Sorry to hear that mate. Just think of the good times you had with him! Quote
Gball1973 Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) Sorry to hear that. Know how you feel, Vik and I lost one the same way a while back. .Please guys, lets keep our speed down in residential areas (I know most of us Z-ers are good lads and lasses), and encourage our friends to do the same. A while after Jack went, our council imposed a 20 limit throughout our village(already planned) - except for our street. Sounds not bad, but our street has the highest RTA rate in the area. A short time after the new speed limit was brought in, a local wrote off his S-class while drunk driving(daytime) - and also a neighbour's people carrier, a british gas van and causing a fair bit of damage to another neighbours MX-5. Turns out he got off with it(something to do with timing of breathaliser sample) We've also had a school kid hit by a car just after getting off the bus, a parked car hit so hard the air bags activated in both cars(Woman actually said to the officer "I wasn't going that fast" "Well the tyre marks on the road, and the airbags say different" ). Young lads in a chavved up Golf hit an old guy coming out a side street so hard/fast both cars ended up in a garden on the other side of the road Yet, the council say it's a police matter and the police say it's a council issue :rant: :rant: Edited February 16, 2013 by Gball1973 Quote
glrnet Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Oh that's terrible, really really sorry to hear your news. Quote
Sarah 350z Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Awful news, I lost my cat a few months ago to an RTA its really upsetting. I work as a veterinary nurse and its awful the amount of RTA's that come through the doors!! Quote
Simon+Kat Posted February 16, 2013 Author Posted February 16, 2013 Thanks everybody for the kind words . My missus and I have just given him a final cuddle, i will find a nice plot in the garden for him tommorrow. I hope all this doesn't sound too soppy, but he really was part of the family and im not ashamed to say i loved him to bits... Sleep well little buddy X 2 Quote
SunsetZed Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Sorry to hear this, RIP little buddy Quote
WhackyWill Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Very sorry to hear the bad news...never easy loosing a pet.. Quote
bronzee Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Of course we understand, they are afterall, little members of the household. Pop a lovely tree or plant above him, and when the tree starts to grow, you'll think of the little moggy again. Quote
spursmaddave Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 We only have 1 of our 3 cats left, fortunately they both went through old age Will you be getting another? Quote
