I killed an animal by accident and now I feel so bad..... :(


Question Posted Thursday June 23 2011, 10:48 am

I killed a squirrel... I swear I didn't mean too.. It was an accident.. I was actually going under the speed limit, and the thing ran out in front of me while I was driving. :( What am I going to do.. I can't stop crying! My parents think I'm stupid for crying but I feel bad because I never killed something before and I love animals! Should I give it a funeral?? Say a few words for the squirrel... :(

If you wanna give it a funeral go ahead, but accidents happen all the time you can't beat yourself up about it(:

Ok this is a hard question I never know what to do when my sister she loves animals to she hasn't ran over and animal yet but were scared when or if she does bc she cries just us talking about it or if my other sister ran over something shed cry like ball. I guess people are that sensitive I tell my sister this every time and it kinda doesn't work for her but it happens to everyone and maybe that animal was meant to die or it was ready to just calm down cause it happens to most drivers also if you do hit an animal again please just remember and calm down bc everything happens for a reason and please be safe bc that's my biggest fear for people hope I helped feel better tldo something to take your mind off it:)

Take a bunch of bird feed and sunflower seeds to your local park and feed the animals there in his memory.

I am sorry you killed a squirrel....


I can't tell you how many animals I've ran over in my years of driving, As sad as it is this kind of stuff happens everyday. Animals just run in the middle of the road and sometimes don't always make it. There just really isn't much you can do to avoid the situation. If it makes you better you can say a prayer or write a poem for the squirrel but I really don't suggest making a funeral for it....

There's nothing wrong with saying a few words for the fallen squirrel. If it makes you feel better, go ahead. I wouldn't recommend literally burying him/her, because you would risk exposing yourself to rabies and other diseases.

When you're driving, things like this can happen. Swerving would have only caused an accident and lead to more casualties. It isn't your fault because it's just one of those things that happens in life.

Also, next time you're out walking and see a squirrel, tell him/her to look both ways before crossing the street (keep some distance for your safety). Good karma :)
