This Cat Was Not Moving, But A Single Twitch Saved Her Life

 It was on a freezing day when this man came across this cat right in front of his house, from the looks of it he assumed that this poor little creature had met a terrible fate. It was lying motionlessly in the freezing snow. As he proceeded to pass by this poor kitten he saw her paw moving and in that moment, he realized that he had to do something about it.

When this feline met her guardian angel not only her life was saved but she also gained unfathomable internet fame. Here is the story of the ginger tabby named ‘Elsa’!

A Cold February Day

On a freezing day when this seventh-grade science teacher was on his way to leave for work he noticed something strange in front of his home. It was a really sad sight since he thought he was looking at a dead kitty, but upon a closer look, he noticed that her paws were moving. Overcome with a sense of responsibility he decided he had to do something about it.

Picking Up the Frozen Cat

Upon making sure that this cat was indeed alive, he proceeded to pick her up and take her inside the house. While the temperature outside was dropping down to below 0 degrees Fahrenheit. This kitty had somehow managed to survive this blistering cold. While this teacher wasn’t sure if this cat will make it or not, he was adamant about trying his best to help him.

Saving Elsa

The man also continued to film the entire incidence for his YouTube audience to see. It wasn’t too long after he uploaded it to his YouTube channel that this video reached over 3 million views. This was in just a month after he had rescued this little cat. Here’s what the man did to save her.

Warming Up

Although at first, this science teacher didn’t really think that this poor frozen kitty will make it, he still tried his best to nurse the helpless feline. He did this by placing the cat in a tub of warm water to allow his body temperature to rise and reach the normal feline core temperature. All this time he continued encouraging this cat with kind words. You won’t believe what happened when this cat finally opened her eyes.

‘Come On, Come On, Buddy!’

In this video, you can heat this man talking to Elsa saying: ‘You’re getting there, buddy’ While he was giving her a nice warm bath. This poor kitty needed to be constantly be kept in a warm environment, so it became necessary for him to warp the cat in warm towel continually. But all his efforts seemed to pay off the moment her nose turned into a healthy pink.

Meow!

Within just an hour of warming up this little kitten, he heard faint meows coming from this little cat. Not long after that he also started moving and even helped herself to some warm milk that had been kept for her. While everything was now looking really hopeful, you will never be able to guess what happened after six hours.

Checking Out The Place

After 6 long hours of being cuddled and literally resurrected. Elsa had finally started moving around and even eating. It was now safe to say that this cat is going to survive the day after all. Upon realizing this the teacher too took a breath of relief. But his work wasn’t over yet, the cat was still in desperate need of medical attention and he took her to a vet.

‘Feeling better?’

The video that this teacher uploaded on the YouTube video finally ended to him asking the cat if she’s better. Views sighed in glee as this happy and healthy-looking cat cuddled against the teacher’s hand. The teacher then said “Elsa. I love you”. Soon this video received hundreds of comments where they thanked the man for saving this cats life.

Elsa Was Fine

Next morning this teacher proceeded to take Elsa to a vet to have her completely check out and see confirm if she really was alright. To everyone’s surprise, the kitten was indeed healthy and was fortunate enough to not have any frostbites. She was indeed a tough cookie. But what happened next to her will leave you even more awed!

A New Home

The man, after saving this poor cat from absolute death at the hands of this freezing weather didn’t want to let her go out again. He had grown so affectionate to this little feline that he decided to name her. He called her Elsa after the Disney princess of snow. In our opinion, it was indeed a fitting name for an ice kitty-queen.

Social Media Was Warmed

Though this act of selflessness and compassion not only did he did he won the trust and love of this little kitty, he also won millions of hearts all over the internet. He had given this cat a new chance at life by saving her life and giving a warm and loving home. This man was indeed her guardian angel!

Check out Elsa now.

House Cat 101

Elsa is now a part of this teacher’s family and until now she has had a ton of time to actually learn how to be a delightful house kitty. As evident from the video, she already loves to cuddle so that’s one thing less for her to learn. All she needs now is to be potty trained and she will become the perfect package!

A Happy Cat

As one can imagine Elsa is indeed a happy and a really healthy kitten who no longer has to brave the harsh weather outside. The days of her fighting every moment to survive are behind her and all she needs to do now is enjoy the loving company of her new owner and give him lots of cuddles.

It Was A Miracle

Without a doubt this new life of Elsa is awesome! It is a testimony that miracles can happen anytime and to anyone. Though some might chalk it up to chance like it was only because the teacher found the cat in due time or he noticed her paw at the correct moment that this cat is now alive. Whatever may be the case, this story truly is inspiring.

Call it Fate

You are of course free to call it fate, or whatever name you feel comfortable calling it. But it was just meant to be for Elsa to be rescued by this amazing human. Elsa is safe here, she gets her food on time, she is safe from any predator and has a loving family what more can a cat ask for!

Winter is Harsh

From this story we too should learn, we should be aware of we have any stray cats or dogs in our neighborhood, and not only this, we should look out for them as well. These animals can’t always take care of themselves and for the rare occasions they do need our help, we should be ever present to help them in any way possible.
