While the driver carried on with their lives a part of our family lay dying, in pain & scared with nobody to comfort her. When I found my girl she was already dead, she died alone & the way I found her will haunt me for the rest of my life. So many people believe a cat is \"Just a cat\" but she was our cat and part of our family.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":21,"created_at":"2020-03-21T11:15:14.760Z","updated_at":"2020-04-22T08:09:07.123Z","rejected_at":"2020-04-21T17:54:59.878Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2020-03-21T11:34:14.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":"We're very sorry to hear about what happened to Ruby.\r\n\r\nWe think this petition is asking for the same action: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/300310"},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
