9 lives. Cat's eyes.

Seeing animals hit by cars is the worst.

A couple years ago a guy driving a pickup in front of me ran over a cat, never even stopped. I slammed on my brakes and it was just such a fucked up sight to see. The cat didn't get hit with the tires, he just got knocked in the head by the bumper at 30mph.

The cat was contorting in these messed up way from I guess brain damage. Think about a cat laying on its side and quickly "bending in half". Now imagine it's doing that every second, in a way that literally makes it bounce up off the ground each time, while blood is pouring from its head. I like to hope, and assume, that cat was already dead at that point and not in pain.

This probably sounds really fucked up, a couple years before that I watched a guy flip his SUV on the highway in front of me and come out of the windshield. I was the first person to stop, I kind of had to he was in the road in front of me. His bones were all broken, he was cut and bloody, and just gurgling. He died before EMS got there while I watched.

I get more upset thinking about the cat....
