Today as son and I were driving to the gym we saw a kitten about three months old sitting in the middle of the road. The speed limit is thirty mph but most people exceed that and I was afraid the kitten would get hit by a car and I said maybe I should go back and get the kitten and take it home. Son said he had seen the kitten in that area before and thought it belonged to a neighbor. When I came back from taking my shower the kitten was dead.

When I picked up son from work just now I told him about the kitten and he said he saw a truck coming around the corner as we passed by the kitten and he had the feeling that the truck was going to hit the kitten. Even if I could have turned around and went back for the kitten he thinks we would have been too late. I feel so sorry for the young one that nobody cared for it enough to keep it safe.
