I actually cried....

For the first time in about 5 years, I actually honestly broke down and cried. The cause of it was breaking a cat's neck. Last Saturday night, I was dropping a friend off at his place, and on my way back home I saw a white and grey cat in the road. Now it was 1 in the mornin and snowing/raining, as I drove off I really didn't think anything of it at first, but then I thought hmmm that thing wasn't really moving. So I turned around to go check it out. ANd sure enough it had been hit. Its back was all twisted up and blood was coming out of its mouth. It just looked up at me and made this terrible merrooww sound. I was like "awww f*ck". So I mustered up all the emotion I could and place dmy hands on its neck, and proceeded to squeeze and twist until until it felt real limp, and the cat didn't move around. I've never had to do this so I wasn't sure if I did it right. SO to make sure it was dead I put its head under my tire and well ran it over just to make sure. Now please don't get some sick image of me while I was doing this, I mean I was crying the whole time I was out with the cat in the cold street. But it was a gonner there was nothing else I could do for it. I couldn't heal it, I couldn't get a vet. So I just tried to put it out of its misery. I still feel terrible about it and can't stop thinkgin about it. Anyway sorry for my long story, its just kinda upsetting. Please don't think I'm some evil butcherer, I love my cat and dog I have at my Mother's house.

When we were kids we had to kill some small birds too

Some idiots put glue on the ground, and they went there, and got stuck. We tried to free them, but they couldn't fly after, and were just rolling around, so my friend put them out of their misery with two bricks.....

That's bad but necessary dude.

Last summer we were driving through the country in our van and a rabbit jumped out from the woods right in front of the van. I couldn't do anything and had to hit it. It ended up getting lodged on the wipers and I had to get out and take it off the van. It was still alive but its back legs were broken so I ended up having to kill it. Always gives you a bad feeling though. Something so innocent.

It's a Pontiac Montana and the wipers have a pocket underneath the hood that they rectract into. That's where the rabbit got lodged.

It was jumping across and jumped just as I hit it. So it came up over the hood and right to the top of the windshield. It then slide down into that pocket. Hardest thing to watch.

Unhappy

I'm sorry that you had to go through that, sweedenhouse...I don't even know if I would have had the will to do what you did. You did the right thing though. Think what might of happened had you not come along. Maybe that poor cat would have been out there for god knows how long in horrible pain waiting to die alone and freezing. Its a good thing you came along when you did. I'm sure that cat is thankful for what you did. Your a good guy. Don't feel aweful. I know its something hard to forget but think of it as you put him out of his misery and now he is somewhere better free of pain. Rock on....

Well here is a srory for you guys....
me and my friend are driving right........and as we are going a ******* skunk drops from the sky and falls on his hood, rolls down
and he runs over it's head.......

I was scared shitless and at the same time laughing my ballz off 'couse we figured that the skunk fell from one of the trees that had branches over the street.........
some other animal probably killed it and was eating it and dropped it or some **** like that.............

afterwards I didn't stop laughing for an hour thinking of
"what if the thing fell a second later. The sunroof was open"
now if that happened I don't care, but I am jumping out of the car regardless if he was going 10mph or 40mph.............

Not impossible at all! I was doing around 70 one day and 2 birds landed on the road right in front of my car. Well my RF tire crushed one bird, when I looked in the rear view all I saw was a cloud of feathers and the other bird flying erratically around the other bird. Made me think they were boyfriend & girlfriend, I felt like ****! I too thought birds were impossible to hit...

One time I was playing football on the beach with a bunch of my friends and their dads. My dad was trying to throw a long pass and so he threw it really hard. It hit a seagull that was about 15-20 feet in the air while the ball was still rising. The seagull fell to the ground and lied there dead. I felt pretty bad.
