A: I'm really sorry to hear about your cat. Losing a pet in such a way is devastating. You may have some options for seeking recourse.

First, consider contacting FedEx to report the incident. They might have a process for handling such claims and may offer compensation for your loss. Document everything, including any witnesses and photos of the scene.

You might also want to consult with a local attorney to discuss your case. They can help you understand your legal options and determine if you have grounds for a claim based on negligence or property damage. It's important to act quickly, as there could be time limits for filing a claim.
