You sick fuck.
I don't particularly like cats but that is someones pet you'd be running over which is devestating!

I think it's more like you need to report it because there's more of a chance your car is damaged and that could be dangerous.

Don't be fucking stupid.
CC is 100% right with that. It's the same rationale behind why you report when you hit a deer (among other reasons)

Hmm, I didn't know that you were required by law to report damages to your car. I thought it only had to pass inspection.

I'm in the USAF, basically I fix electrical problems on aircraft. Before that I worked as a baker, a fry cook, a grill cook, a stocker at Walmart, and a cashier at Office Depot.
I'm going to probably get a degree in English or History and be a teacher. Maybe. But I'm going to get a degree in English most likely. That's going to be either before or after I go to a luthier school

I can't be sure, but that is what I would guess is the rationale behind that rule.

Well, you also have to report it to whoever is in charge of monitoring the deer population. In some instances, they'll want to take the carcass, but in other cases they will let you keep it (at least I think that's how it works here). There are deer everywhere here.
See, I'm not even sure. I think you only have to report it if you kill the deer or something because when I hit the deer this past winter, I didn't have to file a police report at all.

Summer Jobs:
From the ages of 16 to 18 I worked at a Boy Scout summer camp as the merit badge councilor for the Reptile & Amphibian Study and Mammal Study merit badges. Unfortunately, the majority of my students were scouts who were deemed too irresponsible to take other classes and were reassigned to my classes, despite the fact that I was brand new and untrained. Consequently, I was stuck with a bunch of disruptive, disrespectful and disabled kids who I was not prepared to handle and then I was criticized by the senior camp staff because not enough of my students earned their merit badges. Needless to say, I wouldn't do it again.
From 18 to 21 I worked at one of the largest and most prestigious youth baseball summer camps in the United States. For the first year, I worked in the human resources storehouse where the employees would clock in and out, and sign out equipment. For the next two years, I worked in the kitchen.
From 21 to 23 I was the ticket booth attendant at the entrance of a state park. I left the baseball camp to work here, because it's only two miles from my house, which would save me almost 30 miles of travel per day, which would also save me some gas money. After the end of the second season, I decided not to come back because they over-hired for my position and could barely give me 20 hours per week.
Currently, I've just turned 24 and started the beginning of this summer working in a deli that my younger brother's been working in for several years, but left after three and a half weeks, because they only gave me like 16 hours per week and it wasn't worth the gas and 20 mile round trip to work for 4 hours per day, 4 days per week. Also, having my younger brother as my immediate supervisor sucks, because whenever he's in a position of power or has some other form of leverage against you, it immediately goes to his head and he becomes an insufferable douche. It's now been about a month since I left and I still haven't received my final paycheck from them.
Now I'm back in the kitchen at the baseball camp and plan to finish the summer here, especially after discovering that they gave me a 75¢ hourly pay increase. I intend to graduate this December though, with a Bachelor's Degree in psychology and a zoology minor, so this will hopefully put an end to summer labor for good. I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet, but with any luck, I'll accept a job in a more stimulating area than the pergatory town that I live in right now.
School Jobs:
I've been a nude model for the art department for the past two semesters and will continue to do so for my one remaining semester. I also plan to get a job in the cafeteria adjacent to my residence hall.
Like I said before, I'm not sure what I'll be doing after I graduate, but I'd like to return for grad school one day, at which point I will apply to be a GRM (Gradute Resident Mentor) in the international residence hall, which is the same building that I've lived in for the past four years. Eventually, I might want to get a Ph.D, in either bio-psychology, or bio-musicology and hopefully I will even be a professor some day.

This requires a separate post.
Actually, plenty of people hit escaped horses, cows and goats up here too. And while I'm on the topic of hunters, sometimes the idiots who acquired their hunting licenses in the city come up here on vacation and shoot farm animals because white-tail deer and domestic live stock are so hard to tell apart :Smug:
Of course that's only if you report it
As long as it's not a deer, a domestic animal, or a protected species though, I think anything in the road is free for the taking, regardless of who hit it, or how long it's been there
Why bother? The whole story is on the coverRead this?
Well, this isn't really surprising, since they are marsupials, which are among the stupidest of all mammals. I think the only dumber ones are monotremes.
I live in rural NY and our car insurance rates are much higher than what people in the city pay, which seems a bit counter-intuitive considering the amount of theft and vandalism that goes on there. I just recently found out though, that our rates are so much higher because of the number of deer collisions and other deer related accidents. We definitely need to start convincing all the animal rights activists to STFU for a while and let the hunters do their job.

I'm pretty sure the ferrel cat population in the US exceeds the domestic cat population.
I'm not sure if this is national, or just a New York state thing, but if you hit a domestic animal, then legally the owner is financially responsible for reimbursing you for any damage that their pet inflicted upon your vehicle.
In my area, they only let you keep it if you have your hunting license and deer tags with you, and yes, they really do make you use one of your tags as if it were an intentional kill.

...And okra for all
Still busy(well, not as busy as in months past) transcribing and correcting English lectures on Kabbalah. Getting really bored with this job, so I'm gonna look for something else soon. As a side job, every year from May to early July, and from October to early February I work as an exams supervisor in high-schools and colleges.
