10 years old, hit by a car. More unfortunately, it was the morning I had to go out of town, so only found out when the neighbour rang the doorbell (luckily? a video doorbell).

~~Can I ask why he was outside? This common story never gets less sad and sadly never gets less common~~

How did the car get in your house, you should sue for gross negligence and wrongful death as well as costs to repair the structural damage

I'll take the downvotes if it helps one person do the opposite

We've created cars and put them in the middle of nature.

(True, we also fed cats and still let them enjoy hunting, but that's another human hubris sin.)

If people love their cats and want to keep them safe, its just not an option. This is not a discussion or debate unfortunately, it really is that simple. Rip kitty :(

This is about unsupervised outside

If people love their cats they let them enjoy freedom.

The only reason to keep a cat inside is when you're babysitting it when the owner goes on vacation.

Nor should somebody have a cat in a city.
