Eat your heart out, Lassie!
Masha, a long-haired tabby cat, saved the life of a baby abandoned in the streets of Russia — after she climbed into the box he was discarded in and kept him warm, health officials said.
“The baby had only been outside for a few hours and thanks to Masha … he was not damaged by the experience,” a hospital spokesman told Central European News.
The whiskered hero even meowed to get the attention of a passerby.
“She is very placid and friendly, so when I heard her meowing, I thought that perhaps she had injured herself,” said Obninsk city resident Irina Lavrova. “Normally she would have come and said hello to me. You can imagine my shock when I saw her lying in a box next to a baby.”
Masha is a communal cat who is looked after by local residents. When she found the baby — who appeared to be in great shape — she immediately took to him as if he were her own, according to CEN.
Have I ever mentioned that I love animals?
I thought this was a very sweet story. Do you have an emotionally uplifting story that you'd like to share? :heart:

A very nice story!
Good refutation of the old "cats steal babies' breath" myth too.

I've never heard of this particular story. A great one to say the least! This just proves what I say all the time. "Humans have so very much to learn from animals." I sometimes feel that the "animals" are more "human" than a human could ever be.

This is why, I trust animals more than humans from the day I was born. Animals give love that's unconditional straight from the heart!Thanks for sharing, this gives me hope in this dark unforgiving world we live in now! :thumbsup: :cat:

I saw that on facebook. Such a nice story to read. Still feel sorry for the baby that he/she was left out in the cold like that. Animals are pretty great :)

That baby is very fortunate the momma cat took care of him.

I ran across the story last week, too. I had to share it with all my cat loving friends.

Aww. Animals are so awesome! Good story!

Great, great story, thank you for sharing it with us and the mother now knows that her baby is safe.

What a sweet kitty! Cats are my favorite animals; they are so cute, and so smart, even though they have a mind of their own.
