The smell was horrible, we didn't locate the cat so I tried to follow the smell + the hordes of bugs (flies and little fuckers).
We finally located the poor thing, it was dead and bloated behind the neighbor's water tank.
I did something I regret now while searching: I picked up a branch and started to poke the source of the flies, my legs felt so itchy afterwards, flies came flying in huge numbers. until I went inside and took a shower.
Very sad. Obviously the cat was hit by a car; but not fatally: retreated behind the water tank, then died there.
A very sad thing for everybody involved...
Especially when it's unexpected and yucky like this. I'm sorry you had to go through it.
It's strange how strongly a pet's death can affect us, even when it's not our own.
