I was driving to Dad's this morning when I saw a big marmalade cat in a curled up position on the pavement as I drove. I carried on for a bit but it was no good, I had to check if the cat was still alive because I would have got him to the vet. Turned around and parked up, walked over but knew he was gone. I nudged him with my shoe and he was stiff. Just wanted him to be remembered as he had no collar on.
When I came back he was gone so hopefully his owners found him so they could look after his remains.
Such a very sad day for someone. Love and best wishes to you.
Rest in peace.

Awww no! what a shame, RIP Mr Marmalade. If he was curled up, I hope that meant he went peacefully.

RIP Mr Marmalade Even though he was dead he could've been alive and it's lovely to hear that people like you, heartpawprints, are thoughtful enough to at least check. If he had been alive but injured and you had checked then you may've saved that cat's live - it's just so sad that he wasn't.

Rest in peace poor marmalade cat. Well done for stopping to check to see if he was alive. Very sad for you but it's just one of those things that some of us have to do. I did a similar thing last year. I was in a car with some friends and the driver stopped because there was a black cat in the road and she couldn't get around it. I got out and moved it to the side and checked that it was definitely dead. It had happened in the last hour as we had driven down that road earlier.
