God bless you, hamsterjill, for taking care of the cats as you do. You truly have a heart of gold. I'm so sorry for the cat that was killed. Thank you for treating him with love, kindness and dignity at the end of his life. I believe as you do, that the deer were paying their respects. What an incredible sight that must have been, with their heads bowed! Animals feel a lot more than they are given credit for. And of course, they have souls! Many times better than some human ones. I'm just saying.
