I'm so sorry to read about Smoky, as well as that other little housecat you found. I think we all have door darters, and it's so hard to keep them inside when they *insist* on getting out. RIP Smoky.
It's sad that people in our community find joy in running down someone's pet, or a wild animal. I know when I was growing up, my bus driver in middle and high school would PURPOSELY try to hit cats on the side of the road, and the boys in the back of the bus would egg him on. We had a few barn cats that traveled up and down our back road at that point, and he would aim at them at times. I do remember hitting him on the head at one point and really yelling and telling him off, because he upset me so badly. Granted I was a kid, but still, I told him I'd come and run him down if he did anything like that again when I was on the bus, lol. Looking back I could hve gotten in trouble, but he would have lost his job for what he had been doing.
