Petition Having knocked over a cat, the driver must legally stop to help/trace the owner

We have lost two cats to road traffic accidents. On both occasions the drivers did not stop to check if the cat could be saved. It is a criminal offence not to stop and report an accident involving a dog. Whilst cats are more independent they are still a beloved pet and should be respected equally.
