Closed petition Having knocked over a cat, the driver must legally stop to help/trace the owner
Closed on
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.
