I live in the country, so I've hit several rabbits and birds.

A couple cats too.

And of course, I've had about 2 dozen close calls with large deer.

Not that I obliterated any animals but sort of related.

One time my buddy and I were going to play ice hockey outside at our school and his new kitten was following us be we didnt notice. Once we crossed the street by our school we heard tires screech and a thud and we turned around and saw the kitty jumping all over the place. We were like WTF OMG thats your kitty! The car didnt stop, it drove off. I ran up to the the kitty that was still jumping everywhere and caught it it in my arms and just started running down the street with it in my arms. My buddy sean was like stop man! Hes dead!

So I stopped running and put it down on the gound and its eyes were popped out of its head and all its teeth were gone. I just started crying and ran home into my house and my parents were like WTF is going on!?. I had the cats teeth all over my face and I was covered in blood. I cried for like 2 days.

Pretty traumatic. The kitten was a cat from my cats litter that we gave to my friend about a month earlier.

I see dead animals all the time on the road, and it always makes me go "ah man", sorry you had to cause the death of a baby rabbit, but these are the issues that drivers always face. It's the risks of the road, doesn't make it any less sad though.

Never hit anything while driving, but I was always the one called in by my parents to execute the animals that were either trapped in the pool (mostly mice/squirrels/chipmunks) or once my dad ran over a bunny with the lawnmower and ripped up it's legs. That wasn't fun, especially since my cat found it first and was toying with it...

Many moons ago, I worked for the Chicago chapter of Greenpeace. On one lovely afternoon, I had the manager of the office riding shotgun in my car. We were on a single-lane on-ramp to 90/94 downtown.

A couple hundred feet ahead, I see a pigeon walking around in the middle of the damn ramp. The closer I got, the more I hoped the thing would fly away, but it wouldn't. Meanwhile, I check the rear-view mirror to see a car right on my ass, so hitting the brakes isn't an option. Eyes back to the road, fucking pigeon is still there.

Eventually, the gap closes and... *thump*.

After a considerable silence, the Greenpeace manager guy says, "Well that was harsh."

Considering the absolute absurdity of the entire situation, I proceeded to laugh uncontrollably, much to his apparent disappointment. 😄

I've hit a bird and 2 deer (separate occasions) over 10 years.

You will still occasionally feel like shit sometimes if you dwell on it.

Does it have to be by car?

If not...I had to kill a couple of mice and birds that were severly injured by cats.

Did not have fun killing rabbits that were mortally wounded by my cat and mice and birds.

My cat is a murdering SOB.

I was in a car in china on a highway and to this day, ill remember...a wild dog darted across the highway and the car i was in avoided it but the car next to ours couldnt see the dog til the last moment and hit it...and i still can see it flying

The shitty part was there were three dog owners in the car and we all literally rode for half an hour silently, all sick to the stomach
