The law really needs to change to include cats as they are regarded to most people on the same level as dogs! I believe it will decrease rta's involving felines as drivers will have to take more care and also potentially save cats lives as they are less likely to die if they receive medical attention rather that being left to die.

The law must be changed that a car driver report this as it was 9 hours before she managed to crawl back home but unfortunately died in the night at the vet due to her injuries... The law must change it should be the same for all animals we as a family are devastated

The driver of the car behind was nice enough and decent enough to stop, wrap him up and take him to the out of hours vets, they then identified him by his chip and rang us to tell us the sad news.

If you leave any animal to die knowing you have hit it then frankly you deserve to be punished, simple.
