I’m sorry for your loss. We have a huntress cat that adopted us as a quasi feral kitten a couple of years ago but spends 23 hours a day outside doing outside cat things. So far she’s gotten got by a skunk and something presumably a lot bigger than herself opened up a huge gash on her head that fortunately triple anti cream and time sealed back up nicely and you can’t even see the scar through her fur. I always figure it’s a matter of time before a car gets her, but we do live deep in the middle of a subdivision where most people don’t drive crazy, so she’s got that working in her favor.
