RIP maverick:(

[angelbow20]

I dont know if anyone remembers about a cat that got hit by a car alittle over a year ago i would say.. I have a thread about his somewhere. His name was maverick and he lived across the street. well Today he was tied out on his families porch and fell off and hung himself to death... please say a pray for him tonight. RIP sweet boy.

Oh dear! How terribly sad!

[Medusa]

What??? This is awful! How needless! I'm so sorry for little Maverick but happy that he's now where he'll never need to be tied again and that he can roam free and be happy. Such a shame. RIP, sweet Maverick. You didn't stand a chance here but now you'll have a life of ease.

Tragic. Sometimes, the things people do . . . .

RIP dear Maverick. Enjoy your freedom, healthy and happy at the Bridge.

Thats A Senseless Death To Be Sure, Although Mavericks Family Though That They Were Keeping Him Safe.
A Longer Cord And Maverick Would Still Be With Us.
Although I Remember When One Of Our Cats When I Was Young Had A Long Cord , And Somehow Entangled Himself In A Lawn Chair, And Was In Distress.
Mavericks Now With The Pet Angel Army In The Caribbean, Having A Great Time, And Finding A Place Where He And His Loved Ones Can Be Together Again.
One Fine Day.

I dont really talk to him family anymore but since he was hit by a car and rather be outside then in they decided to tie him out to go to the bathroom and just hangout, his chain was pretty long but he got it caught around a chair as well and then somehow fell, she said it all happened within 2 minutes. Its very sad I cried when I ran over after hearing her screamin for help and crying. I just wish I could have kept him even though his family wouldnt allow it since he was their cat.

Wretched people!!! However, at least NOW Maverick is in a safe place where dumb humans cannot do any more harm to him!!! Sleep softly, dear Maverick...

How tragic! Obviously his owners didn't care to invest in a litterbox! Sometimes I wonder why some people have not an ounce of common sense.
Roam free and happy at the Bridge little Maverick.

[angelbow20]

they did have litterboxes I think 3 but he never liked using them i guess.

Rest in peace sweet Maverick and play happily at the Rainbow Bridge.

What a horrible, horrible accident...they kept him off the road, and lost him anyway...does not seem fair.

The what-if's....a harness, not a collar....but this type of accident can happen, even when people are careful.

It sounds like he did not suffer long...perhaps his neck broke, and I hate to say that, but then it would have been quick.

I am heartsick hearing this...beautiful Maverick, rest peacefully sweetheart.

Yes I do think his neck broke.. his teeth went through his tounge so he must of hit pretty hard.. Sorry for sounding graphic. It must've been 2 minutes and he was gone so it went very quickly, im still very upset over it and he wasnt even my own cat. They have so many cats over at their house as well and he really didnt like being around them so that another reason he loved laying outside I guess.

On a good note though is my 4 yr old son will be picking out 1 of 5 stray kittens tomorrow that they have and will be keeping it at his grandmothers and I know it will be taken care of and happy so that atleast makes me feel alittle better.
