It was then that she witnessed a horrific scene.
A person in the car in front of her threw two small shapes out of the window. One of the 'objects' hit her windscreen before flying over the top of her car.
A truly horrific scene
The driver realised with horror that they were, in fact, kittens. She was so shocked that she froze at the wheel, unable to react immediately.
When she turned her head, she saw a small tabby kitten running towards some bins on the roadside, while the second had disappeared from view. She pulled over a few hundred yards down the road, utterly shaken.
A desperate search for survivors
The young woman contacted the Matous Landes association for help. Rescuers spent four days trying to find the kittens. They set out kibble, a humane trap, and even a device that played the meows of a mother cat to attract any potential survivors.
Tragically, their search led to a horrific discovery: a tabby kitten was found dead, having been run over on the road, about 150 metres from the spot the driver had indicated.
The rescuers have dealt with many abandonment cases, but this one is an act of unspeakable cruelty. We send all our support to the association and hope the other kitten is found soon and brought to safety. We will continue to follow this story.
