A blind senior cat named Tiki, who found himself stuck on a chunk of ice in the middle of a lake, gets a miraculous rescue moments before it's too late.
A few days ago, a story about this exact thing went viral online. A blind senior cat in his 20th year left home at night and ended up stuck on an ice chunk in the middle of a freezing lake. Hours later, things were looking dire, and they probably would’ve ended tragically if not for a few heroic locals who intervened just in time.
The man in the boat grabbed the cat moments before it most likely would’ve been too late and brought him back to shore to be wrapped in blankets. Once the rescue team arrived on site, they saw the severity of the situation and acted accordingly. “We immediately transported the cat for veterinary care where his temperature was so low that it didn’t even register on the thermometer.
Some blind cats might even listen for echoes or walk with their tail tip touching the ground to find their way around. They rarely jump on things, often climbing on them instead, but many memorize heights and distances, continuing with their past behaviors, at least in familiar places.Cats who become blind suddenly are likely to deal with a lot more drastic behavioral changes.
