Thank you all so much for your kind thoughts and words.

Sadly, tonight on our way home we saw yet another fatality on the side of the road, only a few yards from where I found Smoky. My hubby is PO'd and can't imagine how someone may find pleasure in intentionally running over an animal. While we can't prove that was the case with Smoky, I do know for a fact there are people out there who are like that, and it IS Halloween where incidents like this rise around this time of year.

RIP Smoky, and the poor little housecat we found tonight
