An unlikely hero helped save the day when a cat stuffed inside a cooler inside a plastic bag was abandoned outside an animal rescue in Fountain Hills, Arizona, over the weekend.
On Saturday, a woman was walking her husky, Koda, down Avenue of The Fountains when the pup pulled the woman toward a zipped-up red cooler inside a black plastic bag outside Fearless Kitty Rescue. When Koda would not stop sniffing the bag, her owner decided to open it up.
To the owner’s surprise, the bag contained a black cat — and she was alive.
Teryn Jones, a spokesperson for Fearless Kitty Rescue, said it was not cool inside the plastic bag as it sat outside the shelter in the Arizona heat. Temperatures in the state have topped out in the 100s for most of June, according to Accuweather, and the high for Fountain Hills on Saturday was 107 degrees.
For days my husky kept going to the corner my wooden fence whining. So I went into the neighbors yard to see what the issue was. They had a wire and wooden fence sandwiched together and the kitten was trapped between them.
107°. A Husky. Hmm.
