How many cats succumb to vehicles per annum? ;-) Not 55 Million I'll bet and I doubt the number is very great at all. However, talking Roadkill on a 5 mile strech of road between Mile Elm and Melksham, in Wilts15 Badgers, 3 foxes, numerous Hedgehogs and several Pheasants in just 2 months, each of which is more important than any pampered cat. Steve R All creatures are as important as each other. To revere or denigrate one species over another is rather hypocritical. If you care about the "15 Badgers, 3 foxes, numerous Hedgehogs and several Pheasants" that are killed, you should care about the cats, frogs, deer, rabbits etc etc that are also roadkill. To single out one lower species just because you consider yourself to be at the top of the food chain is inhumane and immoral.
