I am sorry for such a sad news. It had been very kind and generous of you to adopt the lovely kitties and foster them with all your love. I really hope that you will continue to show your love and care towards the helpless animals.
It's pathetic that the driver took away a life that is so important to others and not only he/she had murdered a life, it also leaves a deep weep to others. I believe many would think that it is lucky because the casualty was only a cat and not a human. Well I don't see any difference. It is just that humans have other humans to speak for them, but sadly, animals do not have enough of this ability. To many car enthusiast, please drive safely. You would not want guild to haunt you forever in a human short life.
However, there is always another side of the story. Lets ponder for awhile...if the poor purr little thing was never ever there at the so wrong moment of its life, accidents would not happen. If we put this in another way, a cat running or walking or jumping or rolling out to the street could also pose a danger to the driver and probably others nearby. So before one could blame all to others, pause for a moment and give yourself a thought.....:hmmmm:
Animals are like children. They have much to learn just like us, but their inability to think and speak like us makes them weak, and us arrogant and monstrous. So to have a pet is like to have a child. You have to take care of it, foster, feed, play with, provide every necessity and of course, ensure of their safety from time to time.
"They are animals...they are all over the place! How do I control or look after them? They go wherever they want to go! How is this my fault?" These are some examples I get from many. But I will usually reply with a question. If it is your 12 years old son who's running around in the middle of a highway, what would you do, ignore, or grab him safely in your arm? To the TS, please do not get me wrong as I am not in particular into you. It is for ALL pet owner. It is our responsibility as owner to look after them. Please, please keep your lovely furry friends IN YOUR HOUSE! That is the safest space we can provide. Cats, unlike dogs, like to go out and explore the world mostly at night. So get a cage or a room for them. And please be reminded that a cage is meant for keeping the animals for a short period of time when you are not able to be with them e.g. Working/sleeping/shitting/etc. this is to prevent them from roaming into mars.
To dog owners, strictly keeping your best friend within your compound is very extremely important. Unlike cats, dogs can be vicious. And please do not let your dog out in the street coz u are lazy to clean up their poo. Do we let our children shit in the streets? If we let our dogs out without supervision, they might end up raping a bitch and contribute to strays. The possibility of them getting infected by various diseases is also high.
To all ZTHians, I believe you guys are a responsible driver as well as a responsible person. If you are to adopt or buy or pluck a pet from the sky, please make sure that you are ready and get to know the "know-how" of raring a pet. If your gf wants to have a pet bcoz it's cute, and its her first time having a pet, please please please make sure that she is committed. There are too many animals got abandoned by their owners. They certainly have feelings and yes, they are like us. They can be happy, depressed, scared, confident, etc. We wouldn't want our parents to abandon us, no?
And dogs are not cheap alarm system that only require a meal per day.
I am an animal lover too. Having a pet dog myself, I make sure that I am able to provide her everything that she needs. Animals, especially dogs, are very loyal. Remember, they only have us. We have friends and families, but we are the only one they have. They never request Gucci Armani Tomei Kikilala Ferrari from us so they never want anything that they do not need. If they ever want anything from us, it's gonna be love.
