Staci is absolutely right. The worst thing that could have happened would be if something happened to you! Things happen quickly and accidents happen. I know how badly and shaken you must have felt, but there was really nothing you could do. I ran over a squirrel one day. I was hoping that I missed him and as I drove past I looked out my rear view mirror and he was twitching in the road. I felt absolutely horrible! I was on my way to work and it really bothered me for the longest time. Just yesterday a cat ran out in front of me on a country road. Fortunately he was far enough ahead of me that I was able to brake and miss him. I have to say the first thought I had, after the initial relief that I missed him, was "why was he running loose?" I know this is a hot topic among cat people (whether or not to have inside or outside cats). My conviction is "an inside pet is a safe pet." Anyway, time to get off my soapbox and remind you that you are human and these things happen. Try not to let it get to you.
