You're not gonna believe this....

Today, at five minutes past one, I left work, jumped into my car that was parked up the path (I work on a housing estate) drove out and turned left, carried on for 30yds and turned right, carried on to the main highway about 25 yds, turned left and carried on along the main road, a long lane.

I must have driven half a mile when suddenly I heard something from the boot area as tho' something had fell inside, I looked out of the rear view mirror (I thought maybe something had come loose from me car as the road ahead was as clear as last week's sky) and saw a cat roll over and over, possibly very sore as I was doing about 35mph, it managed to get onto it's feet and trot away I couldn't believe my eyes, it looked like the neighbour's cat :blink: I reckon it climbed up into the exhaust area and fell asleep I'm still laughing me f***in' head off over it.

They won't believe me in work unless the cat manages to get back.

That reminds me of the time my father tried to do a hedgehog a favour .
Apparantly he noticed it crossing an expressway , so pulled over , and knowing there was a big field at the back of his house , put it safely in the boot of his then Rover 2000 with the intention of releasing it when he got home .

Apparantly when he got home , the hedgehog had mysteriously disappeared , and after a constant search figured it had escaped .

A few months later , he realised there was an awful smell in the car , and couldn't figure out what it was . Gradually the smell got worse and the car seemed to be filling up with flies , and when it reached the point of not being able to sit in the car without a gas mask , he remembered the hedgehog .

The garage had to strip the car to find it which cost a few bob , and though I can't remember exactly where it was found , I know he now puts his foot down on the expressway when he sees a hedgehog .

Both good stories.

A cat got hit by 2 cars right by the office & jumped up into the wheel arch of a colleague's car. Luckily enough a few schoolkids saw it happen & told us & long story short, eventually we got it out & someone took it to the vet. Not sure whether us all trying to get it out had freaked it out & made it stay there longer or if it would have left by the end of the work day but if it had stayed where it was without us knowing it would have died, absolutely no question

Good stories lads If I keep on rep'ing at this rate I'll start looking cheap. I've been driving 20 odd years and never had an animal incident, except on the backseat with a beast.

I was walking home from a mate's house a few years ago about 11pm and as I was walking up the hill I saw something black lying in the road. I actually thought it was a bag or something because cars were driving over it. As I got closer I saw it moving slightly and realised that it was a cat. It must have been hit by a car and it's only movement was it's head. I was about to go into the road and get it but a car came around the bend. I raised my arm and asked him to stop so I could get the cat. He wound his window down and said "**** it it's probably dead". When I wouldn't move out of the way he called me a c**t and revved his engine until I moved. He then drove on over it. Then another car came racing around the corner and went over it so I thought **** it, I'll quickly pick it up and take it home before it gets splattered.

I carried it up the hill and as I got near my house it started to move a little which I thought was good, until I realised that it had just shat all down my coat! I wasn't best pleased but at least he was alright. It actually belonged to an old woman down the road and it's still alive and well today. But some people are such tw*ts.

Sounds horrendous, well done for saving it though

Sorry, but I laughed when the shitting on you part came up. Apologies.

But yeah some people can be real d*icks. Glad to see Evertonians aren't though.
