Heroic Cat Saves An Abandoned Freezing Baby, Curling Up Around Her For Warmth All Night And Screaming For Help (Tumblr Thread)

Some cats are known as undeniable icons on the internet. Everyone knows and remembers grumpy cat - still, all these years later, despite the fact that she passed away in 2019. And who could possibly forget about longcat? Again, all these years later, despite the fact that this legend passed away in 2020. And of course, there are the more recent icons - like the adorable and precious Tatar Tot, who took the internet by storm in less than 0.2 seconds. 

We, here at ICanHas, think that it's impawtant to remember these amazing kitties - because they brought us together, sometimes for a short time and sometimes for longer. These stories and these cats made our community flourish. And one icon that we think does not get remembered nearly enough is Masha. The story of this cat amazed everyone back in 2015. In the middle of a freezing storm, in Russia, this cat came across an abandoned baby outside and saved it.

    Cat - RT RUPTLY. Masha, the cat, saved the baby's life by curling around him and shielding him from below freezing temperatures.

    A true hero if we have ever heard of one. It is undeniable that this amazing cat understood that this baby was in danger and needed help, and that it was an active choice by this cat to do what needed to be done to save the baby. The more you read of this story, the more amazed you will be, we promise.

    Tire - By the time paramedics responded to take the child to a hospital, Masha had grown protective of him, running after the baby and trying to jump into the ambulance after him

    Unfortunately, no matter how much we looked, we could not find any updated information about Masha and where she is now. We hope that she's still happy and healthy, living her best life with the family that adopted her. And please, if anyone knows anything about Masha's whereabouts, contact us, we would love to hear!

    Font - See. jenniferrpovey Follow Kittens can't regulate their own body temperature. That's why they pile up. Cats see us as colony members. Masha saw a kitten that was on its own, no mommy, no other kittens to cuddle with. She instinctively knew that was a cold kitten. She knew that a kitten alone on a cold night was very likely to die. Because a kitten would have died too. So, all she was doing was what any good colony member does - protecting the abandoned kitten. Then when the abandoned kitt

    Font - People have this bizarre idea that housecats don't have a social sense. They do, and it saved this kid's life. And possibly Masha's too, as life on the streets is dangerous for a kitty. We say "good dog" all the time, but Masha was being a very, very good cat...not just by human moral standards but by feline ones. 632.7K notes D

    Font - A stray cat in Obninsk, Russia is being hailed by local residents as a hero when she saved the life of an infant abandoned in the snow for hours. Masha kept the 3-month old boy warm with her body inside the cardboard box the baby was left in, and called the attention of neighbors for help by meowing.

    Font - "She is very placid and friendly, so when I heard her meowing, I thought that perhaps she had injured herself. 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," said local, 68-year old Irina Lavrova.

    Font - Although Masha is a stray, residents in the area already knew her well and all help care for her by giving her food. They all agree that their little moggy's mothering instincts must have kicked in when she saw the baby in trouble and did all she could to protect it. Some reports even say that Masha wanted to accompany the baby in the ambulance when it arrived and waited a few hours for the infant to be returned to her. Medical workers at the hospital where the baby was taken said that he
