My cat was killed on Weds early evening. The driver didn't stop - a neighbour called me to tell me. I was on my way home and collected his body around 8pm - some kind people had taken him in and put him in a box. To the driver, if you are reading this - if you do this again have the courtesy to stop and ring the number on the tag. Perhaps you didn't realise - but the roads here are quiet and if you'd been driving at low speed and paying attention I doubt this would have happened. It's caused us much heartbreak. He was not even 2 years old.

Sorry to hear about this - we lost our cat same way last summer.

I just wanted to balance above comments because not everyone who runs over a cat is reckless, speeding or aware of the mishap / choosing to ignore it. The fact a cat is called or injured doesn?t automatically mean the driver was reckless.

I saw a fox run over recently on CP Rd, the car was doing maybe 10mph and probably had their stereo on - which will be why they probably didn?t hear the poor creature howling like a banshee after it?s pelvis got crushed.

Why would anyone write a response like that, with such a sudden, distressing detail as that, on a thread like this?? Written by someone who is obviously really upset about the loss of their cat? Why would you do that??


So sorry to hear about your cat Cinders.

Oh that's terrible news. I am very sorry Cinders. He was a sweet little cat, very friendly and he used to come and say hello to my old cat Luke. It's funny, I thought I saw him recently at my kitchen window but it must have been his ghost looking for Luke. He had this habit of jumping onto my wheely bin and "talking" through the window to Luke. I'm sure Luke will miss him. RIP Pixie.

So very sorry about the loss of your sweet Pixie. It is awful to lose a pet, especially such a young one and in such an unexpected manner.


It happened to my cat when I was a child (waaay back in the 70s), and I still remember every single thing about that awful day. The loss stays with you, but so, too, do the lovely memories of your sweet kitty.

    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
