Some cats sometimes live on the edge like Smokey, who used to hide on the highest shelf in the garage or the poor kitty below who’s tail is in danger.
You may remember me reporting on a couple of people who happened to rescue live cats hidden in bags on their way to being crushed in a trash compactor.
Have you heard about Sakae Kato, the man who couldn’t leave behind the abandoned cats even after his homeland was hit by nuclear contamination? While thousands fled their homes, he stayed behind to care for the abandoned cats. He has buried many of them, but still cares for 41 cats, a dog, and even the wild boars. Here’s his story with photos.
And how about this amazing rescue: In Thailand, a sailor, while watching a burning ship
sink, caught sight of some cats that had scurried to the highest point on the sinking ship. He rescued those cats by swimming with them on his back to safety. Here are some amazing photos of that rescue.
And then there’s the cat that hijacked an airliner that had just taken off from Sudan on its way to Qatar. The cat found his way into the cockpit and became violent. Aren’t there laws against that? The pilot had no choice but to land and let his unruly passenger out.
