Title: Bus driver stops to pick up injured cat
Post by: Susanne (urbantigers) on March 14, 2009, 17:52:08 PM

Nice to know that there are still people who care

I did read elsewhere that the cat died, although it doesn't say so in this report.  If that's the case, RIP little cat, but I'm glad someone stopped to help you instead of leaving you to die in the road.

Whatever the outcome, this little one wasn't left to die in the road.

wonderful people, thank God for people like that.  I had a photo once on my kitchen wall of a canadian fireman giving the kiss of life to a tiny kitten he'd pulled out of a burning building. In the dark times, you need to remember there are people like that in the world....

We do have more Bus Drivers like that... Granted not many in built up cities where the job makes your grumpy, but round here, a lot of us have good hearts.  :Luv:

My route took me past a vets surgery in Thanet and I often dropped off stray and injured creatures there. Sometimes some of the other buses whose routes crossed mine would flag me down and hand over animals that they'd found on the road as they knew I went past a vet. Mostly injured seagulls and other birds but also a poor little lost poodle that ran out in front of the number 88 in Ramsgate.  :( We sat the poodle in the luggage rack until we got to the vets. I shall never forget how the poor mite shook with fear.  :'( It turned out to belong to an old lady and she had forgot to shut her front gate and doggie escaped.  :doh:
