After 15 Months, Missing Cat Is Found On River, What Happens Next? WOW!

Sometimes events happen that seem nothing short of miraculous. This is certainly the case for Claudia, a tabby cat who went missing for fifteen months straight, and her human Adrienne Hamilton who searched for months for her missing feline.

The cat was found by a cyclist named Becky Steel who noticed the cat stranded on the base of Dolphin Bridge in Norwich, England. Two men, Stephen Hawkes and Danny Mealey, were nearby in their boat.

The woman was quick to enlist their help. The men slowly approached the feline in their boat, which isn’t exactly the ideal vehicle to rescue a cat in due to their fear of water. The tabby was cooperative however if not a little apprehensive in nature says those who witnessed the rescue.

It wasn’t known who the owner was until the RSPCA took the stranded tabby to a vet. The cat was declared completely healthy and a small microchip implanted by the previous owners helped provide the name of said owner who was alerted of the rescue as soon as she was found.

It’s easy to say the microchip in Claudia was a great benefit to the family who was ecstatic to have their pet returned safely to them. Adrienne and her family were instantly recognized by Claudia, who made a chirping sound the family was quite familiar with. Adrienne’s son was reportedly crying tears of joy when he heard the news.

Claudia has since been returned to her family who are sure not to let her out of their sight anytime in the foreseeable future. Share away, people.

“I’m Not Leaving You, Mama!” This is What Love Looks Like.

UPDATE: Lizzie and Phantom are currently recovering in an outdoor koala ward within the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital . They’re doing swimmingly; Phantom is both gaining weight and exploring his temporary habitat. And of course, mama and baby are sharing more adorable cuddles! For most species in the animal kingdom, the bond between mother and baby is incredibly strong. That's pretty much inarguable. But last week, two koalas in Australia further proved it. After they were hit by a car, Lizzie and her joey, Phantom were welcomed into the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital. Six-month-old Phantom had escaped the accident unscathed. Lizzie, however, wasn’t looking so good, what with facial trauma and a collapsed lung. In order to survive, she needed to go under the surgeon’s knife. But this marsupial mama wasn’t alone during the life-saving procedure. Phantom accompanied her and clung to her as she received treatment. The vets let them be; Phantom was too y...

The Sound Of This Baby Rhino Wailing After Its Mother Was Killed By Poachers Will Haunt You

It’s one of the most sorrowful sounds you’ll ever hear, but it’s also a sad reality check for anyone who thinks protected species are safe from illegal poaching. In a video released this in July, a baby rhino named Davi cries for his mother after she was shot and killed by poachers. Most rhinos spend at least three years with their mothers before weaning, the Dodo reports, but Davi’s childhood was cut short at just 8 months old. The baby rhino stood close by his mother’s lifeless body until rescuers arrived. They fitted her with earplugs and a blindfold to calm his anxiety on the way to The Rhino Orphanage in South Africa. Source: YouTube/Terrence Daniels Davi huddles close to his mother’s dead body. It was there that Davi spent the night crying. “His calls for mom echoed deeply and urgently throughout the night, but two carers have been with him every step of the way,” caretakers posted . “At least he is in good physical condition [and] has no injuries...

Speak out against the cruel dog meat trade

Much of the world sees dogs as their trusted companions, but in parts of Asia they suffer terribly as victims of the trade in dog meat for human consumption. In some Asian countries, dogs used for this industry are mostly stolen pets and they are sometimes tortured before being slaughtered. The dog meat trade is not only cruel, but is also linked to the spread of rabies and other diseases. HSI is working with local organizations in South Korea, China, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, Indonesia, and India to sensitize the public about the harmful dog meat trade that thrives in these countries. We actively shut down farms in South Korea, assist farmers as they transition to more humane livelihoods, support our local Chinese partners in intercepting dog meat traders’ trucks, fund the care of confiscated and rescued animals and lobby for better laws throughout Asia. Take the pledge to fight the cruel dog meat trade >>> SIGN PETITION HERE <<<
