(55,894 posts)I was driving in heavy, fast moving traffic and a white cat ran across many lanes of traffic under my wheels.
Sadly there's a real possibility it was an unwanted cat thrown from a car.
This apparently isn't that uncommon. Throw unwanted animals onto busy expressways.
I STILL feel sick thinking about it.

(13,877 posts)ours was slowed way down. A cat had just been hit by a car and was writhing flipping (I'll skip the gruesome details). I couldn't stop because our side was still slowly moving, but I saw the look of horror on the face of the woman first in line looking at the kitty. It couldn't have been her because she was stopped....the one who hit it must have driven on.
May the Kitty go see the Great Cat Mother in the Sky. RIP
