...I can't even look at him. I keep trying to tell myself that to him it's the same as any wild animal...that he doesn't know that this was someone's beloved pet....
The cat has been in our (fenced) yard several times over the last few weeks and I alerted the owners, but they were unwilling/unable to keep him inside. He is quite old and must have gotten cornered...I opened the door to let the dogs out and B was down the steps before I could get to him. I heard the cat screaming but they were running and I couldn't catch him once he had it in his mouth. Oh my God it was the most awful sound I've ever heard I feel so terrible.
If I had just yelled at Bailey to come or to leave it be he might have been okay but I was hysterical and screaming and I wasn't thinking. It happened so fast and I was just praying it wasn't a cat even though I knew it was.
The owners aren't even mad..."he was old"...which means B won't be PTS but I feel like someone should be mad on behalf of this poor kitty. I am so absolutely heartbroken and sick. I should have paid better attention. He's killed feral cats but that's why I keep him in the yard now =(
R.I.P. little orange dude =(
