I killed a cat tonight

Tonight I was driving home after having a few beers. Not drunk but not legal either. I saw a small flash in front of me, darting before my car, and in a split second I felt like I was driving over a speed bump. Oh. My. God. I circled around back to where it was and I saw the cat. Its back leg was convulsing in the air uncontrollably. Panic, revulsion and guilt all welled up in me. I circled back. The animal was still. There were 2 other cats on the sidewalk, and one of them slowly inched toward it. I dared not blare ny horn for fear of calling attention to myself, because if questioned I would be found drunk and gotten a DUI, which would ruin me. I frantically and hysterically called animal control, which directed me to 911. At that point I figured it would be better to call once I got to my house and pretend someone drove me and had run over the cat. I am heartbroken. I have three cats myself and now feel like one of them must be taken from me to atone for this sin. Please forgive me God.
