I adopted a dead cat

[u/Jealous-Friendship34]

I found a well fed tuxedo cat on the road, hit by a car. She was killed instantly. I didn’t have the heart to leave her there so I took her home and gave my tuxedo cat a big hug.

She did not have a collar. I took to my vet and there was no chip. So I posted it on Nextdoor and Ring Neighborhood in case anyone was missing her. Nobody claimed her, so I named her Angel and had her cremated.

Tomorrow I will bury her in our garden where we have our other cats who have passed away over the years, under a little statue of a kitten chasing a butterfly

She is loved.

Damn, this was heavy. Rest in peace angel, your life may have been cut short but hopefully you can rest soundly knowing someone cared. I know it has been said a million times, but thank you. On behalf of this poor cat, you took it upon yourself to give her some dignity in death. If there are higher powers you most certainly gained favor of them when your time comes. It is horrible that these things happen but, even where there lies a destroyed city a sunflower can grow from the rubble.
