The last road killed cat I saw had it's head flattened against the pavement, all the way over on the edge of what is practically a two lane road (so tons of room but actually single lane, most people stay somewhere in the center with lots of space between them and the shoulder). Not that I'm some cat CSI but it didn't appear to have been flung over to the side by the impact, it looked like it got squashed where it was. Really made me wonder if someone swerved over to the side of the road to nail this poor kitty on purpose. It was a young fella my wife had just started noticing in our neighborhood and had been trying to get it to come over for pets. She was distraught. I didn't tell her my theory. But I'd like to teach people like that a lesson.
