Stray cat saves life of abandoned baby in Russia

[sio]

A baby boy not older than 12 weeks has been found in a box on a staircase in an apartment block in the Russian town of Obninsk. The box was meant for a cat, who - after having found a new soul in misery, warmed up the baby and was worried to let him go

I hope whoever adopts the baby will also adopt the cat too.

the people in the building take care of the cat already. they probably wouldn't let her go.

Ah, okay. I read the news article and it sounded like a cat that hangs around and gets fed by the folks (which is the case for a lot of homeless cats in my neighborhood).

you're partly right. kitty hangs around in that particular building from how I understand it :) I'd say she's kind of owned by everyone in the building.

Cats are awesome. I'm glad the baby is gonna be fine.

I've been seeing this story posted a lot and honestly wonder if the cat was actually attached to the baby, or if it was trying to keep itself warm next to it. Sort of a win-win for both. Still, lucky for the baby either way!
