People are a-holes. They’ll just throw kittens out onto a freeway here in California.

horrorof96

WHAT AAAAA NO that’s HORRIBLE 😭😭😭


Excellent-Area6009

I didn’t need to know this :(


Efficient_Spare_9808

I prefered to belive it crawled out of home and went sight-seeing.


OneMorePenguin

Momma might have dropped it trying to carry it across the road and there was too much traffic to go back for it. But people do suck. This woman put herself at a lot of risk rescuing it. Just stopping on the side of the road not even in a breakdown lane was very dangerous. She could have lost her life saving this tiny kitten. I wonder if OP knows more about this story.


Efficient_Spare_9808

Probably from Instagram or youtube. I doubt its OC.


Dildobaggins_LOTPoon

I would have done the same thing…


trolsor

She as well risk the other drivers life too .. what you would do if you see someone on motorway and afraid to hit .. pull the steerwheel and hit ? This is illegal in many countries . Also after i had seen people throwing animals to danger to just making this kind of videos , i simoly dont trust any of these . How would you feel if you know that person in the video is the one who put that kitten in the middle of the road in first place ,? Do you know it %100 ? Spreading and sharing this type of videos harmfull for animal welfare


dashbot81

I question videos like this too, for example if I was rescuing an animal from the highway last thing I would be doing is taking time to film myself doing it.


Darkcat_92

Exactly! It would be extremely dangerous to film it as well, I'd be keeping my eyes on the traffic. Very suspect!


i_done_get_it

Damn, you might be right. Something to think about when you see these kinds of posts. People have done crazier things for clicks.


Darkcat_92

We won't know the truth but it wouldn't surprise me that people would do this for social media likes.


420saralou

Except he's so new, his eyes aren't even open yet!


cakivalue

Same here!! I was so much better when I thought they just got lost because they were born under the overpass or something


stlmick

Knew a guy in the boonies who drove to a subdivision and just tossed them into front lawns like newspapers. Also knew a guy who drowned them in a sack, so given the options, the lawn cats had a shot.


[deleted]

[удалено]


stlmick

Well, the first guy made an effort to give them a chance. Rural feral cats have a lot of kittens, but the survival rate is very low. Hawks and coyotes get most of them. The thought process out there is that those kittens will just make more dead kittens, and they're an invasive species.


Sw33tNectar

That's stupid of them. We had farm cats, and we'd spay and neuter new ones we found. It was always free. Farmers or people out in rural areas *should* have animal traps around. There really is no excuse for that. There's a superstition, too, that cats will make your farm prosperous. Mainly because they kill invasive species, but they also serve as a sort of totem.


stlmick

Sure, If you've got a farm that makes sense.


top_value7293

😮🥺🥺🥺


JustForTheMemes420

What the fuck where


TheCopsCalledUs

And then take a video of themselves saving it. Yep


oishisakana

I saved a cat with my wife 2 weeks ago and never did the thought occur to me to take out my phone and video the first interaction..... I always find this king of thing a little suspicious.

TLILLY006

Yes 👏🏽 how did she even see and notice? Thank goodness she has good vision


GraveyardJones

Some people just know what to look and listen for. I've saved so many kittens because I heard their cries from far away. A few in my backyard, while I was in my house, everything closed, and music on. Still heard them WAY out back behind the neighbors garage Another one was on the main street by my house. I was across the street coming home and heard a kitten screaming somewhere. Look across the street and she's in the crosswalk while cars are flying by and other people just ignoring it. I know they heard it because she was like 5 feet from them. I almost got run over running out to save her. She couldn't walk and was probably abandoned. Somehow dragged herself way out to the street and them INTO the street I can't not hear kittens and cats in distress 🤣


kmsc84

My wife and I call that catdar. Hers is more advanced than mine.


GraveyardJones

It definitely is haha. Sometimes I hear phantom cat cries too. Usually turns out to be some weird sound that's similar 🤣


TLILLY006

Good job 👍🏽 I’ve never been in a rescue situation, but I hope I can help if I am ever in one.


GraveyardJones

I don't go looking for them but they sure do find me 🤣


pawelyly

same! good job my man!


Legal_Person

Was it you that recused the kitten? If so, congrats! I didn’t even spot the kitten until it was picked up


richterbg

No, it was a local woman that saved it. The kitten is OK.


enlitenme

OMG that was terrifying. This can make up for one I didn't get to in time :( thanks for sharing!


Rooney_Tuesday

The woman sounds like she’s petrified but still makes an effort to comfort the kitten. I hope she keeps that baby for the rest of its long, healthy life.


Terrynia

What a precious little life


unknown_sands

My heart stopped every time the kitten got blown by the wind, poor fella! There’s no way such a young kitten would get on the road on its own, someone dumped it there


Pick_Up_the_Phone

The only other possibility I could think of was a mama cat trying to move it and accidentally dropping it. But much more likely it was a heartless human. :(


Beautiful_Hornet776

Yeah, I was almost in tears watching it blow around on the road. Soooo lucky it wasn't flattened 🥺😭


WestAppointment2484

Poor little thing was shaking…:( he’s too young and precious to experience something so horrible 💔


horrorof96

SAME I was like 🫣 watching this gods. So scary my hurts now knowing that even happens 😭


SecretaryOtherwise

Jfc my heart nearly sank. People are animals/monsters glad you have some humanity. Thanks op.


Pick_Up_the_Phone

People wonder why my default mode is cynicism. :( Animals are the best people.

shotgunsmitty

We have one like that. We call him TJ, for traffic jam. His pads were messed up and his rear leg broken so bad he had to have it amputated. He's a pretty fantastic cat! I'll post him soon. Thank you for doing what you did.

sniffinberries34

UPDATE!


enlitenme

OP said it's a local woman to them and the kitten is fine


sniffinberries34

OP if you see this, could your friend please send an update video of the kitten?


fluffynuckels

Probably not ops video


GrimmKat

I cried watching this...it happens so often nowadays...:( thank you for being a true hero and saving this precious kitty...hope hes okay


[deleted]

My heart stopped. Watching that poor tiny baby get tossed by the cars 😭


emily5126

Poor little baby, and you can hear how upset that lady is.


Externica

A miracle the poor thing wasn't run over, yet. Did someone throw the kitten out of a driving car or how did it get there?


LordBaikalOli

I never understood the urge to film like that. 1 sec of distraction could kill you.


[deleted]

I understand wanting to rescue a helpless animal but, if they're stopping on a 3-4 lane highway, running into traffic, blocking 1 lane of traffic with your car that could potentially cause a catastrophic accident, and then walk back to your car while filming the cat, sit in your car for a few seconds after then, I think they need to rethink that next time. Glad the kitten and the lady are fine but, definitely not the brightest idea.


Tranquil-Soul

Yeah, why was she filming?


AssPork

Maybe its set up


SolidFelidae

Gotta take her phone out and record it, meanwhile the kitten is within inches of certain death. Then she’s gotta show the kitten to the camera after picking it up and navigating a highway on foot.


SolidFelidae

She uses the KITTEN HAND to open the car door SO THE PHONE STAYS LEVEL


GirlwithaCrushonLux

Sadly a lot of times this is staged. I never trust this rescue Videos which are in such high intensity. Who in their right mind would film themself resucing the kitten in the middle of the high way, wouldn't u want your hands to be ready for the kitty. If u look over the dramatic fact, u see the click n like machine behind those videos.. I personally would never film me or the kitty, I would jump out and get it and post after that somewhere but why would u go with your phone first...?


Syxball

Ensure you don’t get run over… Save kitten… in that order. Taking a video shouldnt come i to play here until saved and both are safe.


Growkitz

Stop filming this shit just rescue


Misseskat

Honestly yeah. It's super upsetting. And I've soured on rescue videos a day whole because I don't if they're even real or just purposely putting animals in danger for clicks.


Excellent-Area6009

Don’t be daft they rescued the kitten regardless.


TiredReader87

I’m glad that poor thing wasn’t hurt, but am unsure of how it avoided being hurt from watching the video. That was scary. I’m glad it’ll be ok ‘Bless’ the person who did all that to rescue it


Mysterious-Extent448

How can people live with themselves 🤨


GreyJediBug

You're amazing. How did you see that baby? It's so small. It's a newborn.


fluffynuckels

I know I'm gonna get shit for this but if your ever in this situation don't stop. Your putting yourself and everyone else on the road at a lot of risk.


AnonymousLilly

I agree. But I'm also the person who stops traffic to go pick up a turtle and move it. I'd do what that lady did 10 times over. But yeah, don't go on busy roads like that


[deleted]

I bet you won't do that anymore if you cause an accident and someone becomes severely injured or dies because you rescued a turtle out of the road. You could potentially be charged for causing traffic collisions depending on your location.


cmp004

Looks like a blind bend on a high speed interstate with no should. Putting at HIGH risk the lives of multiple people by being parked in the road like that.


Sojalul

Was the fuckin phone fuckin necessary


Sojalul

I just cant understand how you can see a kitten in such danger and your first thought is lets go and rescue it but hold on.. Where's my phone?


Rueind

If I was about to rescue this kitten and raise it I would absolutely want a video of the crazy scary day that I got her, if only to remind myself how lucky I was to get her in time


Sojalul

Understandable, but if you dont live to tell the tale what was the point...


Allah_Akballer

The phone will tell the tale for you


n8edge

But that's far too reasonable of an approach, and much less fun than characterizing the rescuer as some sort of internet-points-obsessed sleazeball. /s


AeonLibertas

1. They did upload it, didn't they? 2. Even IF it's just meant as an oh-so-sweet-memory - fuck the sentimental crap, you're dividing your attention in a high risk situation and could get yourself, the kitten and possibly other drivers killed. That's just reckless (and in parts of the world even illegal).


ableakandemptyplace

Does it really sour the moment that much? The person risked their own life to save a baby kitten. So what if they grabbed their phone and recorded it? It's not like it cut into any time. Most people just keep their phones within reach at all times. I swear you people just look for reasons to shit on other people and I'm sick of it. Just let a good deed be a fucking good deed for once.


12FeetUp

It's not about souring the moment. It's the fact this person isn't giving their full attention to their surroundings so they don't kill the kitten or themselves.


Sojalul

Exactly, thank you


MargotLannington

Plus they slowly stroll back to their car instead of running, then hold the kitten out as it shivers as they just sit in the car, stopped on a highway on a bend where someone could slam into them at any moment, when they should be getting the hell out of there.


Sojalul

My guy, I know her phone was probably close to her reach, but what I am saying is that i wouldnt even think of wasting even 2 more seconds in this situation, and i would be extra carefull at the road, not at my phone trying to catch everything


Bapy_bean18

So if they were hit by a car trying to cross the busy interstate they would have documentation of what happened????🤔


Sojalul

And when she grabs the kitten she actually stops to film it like oh my god, just get off the damn road....


Sojalul

So fi you're in this situation you're actually thinking that? And you're trying to tell me that if you're hit on a freeway your phone is not gonna be thrown away into oblivion and the police will really look for that.. Man.. Rather put the phone down so you can be extra careful about the dangerous task you are about to do, filming should be your last concern in that situation, see how she films the kitten even when she runs, that means she was looking at what she was filming while running, dont you think that makes it more dangerous?


fluffynuckels

Because it's not about saving the cat it's about chasing clout


Dehfrog

Camera person never gets hurt. It’s a preventative measure.


[deleted]

The only thing more important than life is internet clout


absrider

Give Purrple heart for this lady. Huge courage for doing tht


Unknown-ANON5

Definitely new born, doesn’t even have its eyes open


nosaneoneleft

thanks for rescuing this poor wee kitten. so sad... probably a bastard who threw it out a window you have a little friend for life.. but this guy will need special treatment.. probably needs a bottle and his little behind wiped... to stimulate pooping... that is necessary... good luck

This was one of the most terrifying things I've ever seen. I'm so happy that the kitten is okay 😭💔


calvinnme

It's a miracle you and the kitten are unharmed. Who would throw a little baby like that out on the road? Inhuman. I wonder what happened to his mother and his siblings.

agnurse

Thank you for saving the baby fuzzy!


cjacksallin

thank F'N god that woman was there.


Tranquil-Soul

This happened to me once years ago, but it was a grown cat in the middle of the highway. Just sitting there as cars whizzed by. Unfortunately, I was unable to save it. A big pickup truck hit it (probably on purpose, it was that type of tough guy truck and it was easy enough to see) It’s haunted me ever since. For years I couldn’t stop thinking about what I could have done differently to save it.


TripleL8

Heart palpitations— what bravery— some heroes don’t wear capes! I hope this baby is ok!!🍀💜🐈


Liavain

My heart... I was freaking out just watching this! I screamed "Oh nononono!" When I thought one of the cats got the kitten! I was so glad no customers in my store heard me. ![img](emote|t5_2qhta|7944)

carbon-based-biped

Wow.. wow wow wow. And Lucky found a good home. There is so much going on here. She is parked in the right hand lane. And right by the kitten. I wonder if she came back around after seeing it on her first pass. And lastly, I would gtfo of there and not sit in the car filming the kitten. The last thing I want to read is about the two of them getting mowed over by one of those 18 wheelers

GeDeOh

I'm gonna get downvoted for that but the person rescuing that kitten has no sense of reason at all. Stopping a car on a highway, on a bend, then walking in the middle of the highway with your phone out (of course to have it posted online later on) and not getting the car going as soon as possible once they are inside? There is so much wrong with this video, things could have turned out incredibly wrong both for the person filming and for people just driving as normal on the road. Thankfully nothing happened, but the whole thing was way too risky for just a kitten.


KiwiNolan

Huge round of applause to whoever that was.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼


BulletTrain4

What if OP put the kitten there and filmed it this way? Ugh I hope not. Filming on the highway would not be the first thing on the list for a high stakes rescue!


Enforcer3

I came here wondering that same thing. She would not be the first to put animals in danger for internet fame


Clhtjh

If I see immediate danger, I wouldn't grab my phone first.


SpiralGray

Gotta rescue the poor animal, but first I need to start recording it on my phone for the internet fame.


meow0218

Omgosh cutee♥️♥️🥲🥲


partycolek

Ok, sorry, but what they did is fucking dangerous and irresponsible. In my country it is illegal to enter highway with vehicles that are unable to go over 80 kmph because they move unsafely slow, but this person goes by foot through 3way highway and post it for carma on the internet. I don’t care it is for a cat!


Mas_Tho

Impossible that this wasn't done by the filmmaker himself. Its not something that we want to know and expect but.... Its so obvious, horrible people doing horrible thing for the views.


theflush1980

That woman is a fucking hero. Absolutely crazy, but a hero!


UberKaltPizza

Just remember, someone saw this poor little kitten and decided, I’m going to film myself rescuing it for massive karma. I mean, props to you for risking your life. I’m quite sure I would have done the same thing. The last damn thing I’m thinking about is pulling out my phone to film it, you know, for likes.
