Rejected petition Make it a legal requirement that if you hit a cat with a car you must report it.

I have seen it all too often. A cat has been hit by a car & the driver, drives off. This was someone's pet, a member of the family. It should be legal for you to report hitting a cat - just like it is too hit a dog.
