A brave boy saved a blind cat with a weak leg that was stuck in the snow.

Winter can be tough for outdoor cats, and it caught out this blind orange and white cat who got stuck in the snow.

The poor cat was seen outside in the snow, struggling to move because it was blind and had a weak leg. It really needed help.

Luckily, someone who saw the cat posted a rescue request on social media, and volunteers from the community rushed to help.

But when they got to where the cat was supposed to be, they couldn’t find it. They found out they were too late because someone else had already saved the cat.

It was a brave 12-year-old boy named David who didn’t waste any time and helped the cat as soon as he saw it.

Later, the rescued blind cat was given to the caring folks at Chatons Orphelins rescue. One of their team members, Celine, said:

“David took him to his parents’ home. The cat was really tired, couldn’t move fast, and was struggling because of his condition.”

Before giving the cat to the rescue, David and his parents made sure the cat was safe indoors and gave him the name Oskar with love.

Meanwhile, volunteers Veronique and Guylaine, who had been looking for the cat, offered to help when they heard that David had saved it.

When they saw Oskar, they noticed right away that one of his back legs was weak, and it was bending in the wrong direction.

When they looked at Oskar more carefully, the volunteers found out that he was blind, which is why he got lost.

But even with all his challenges, Oskar was still a sweet and loving cat, thankful for being rescued. After getting some fluids and food, he curled up in a cozy blanket and fell fast asleep.

The next day, the volunteers called Chatons Orphelins rescue to help Oskar get medical care, and luckily, they were happy to take him in. When he arrived, Celine described how he looked:

“When he got to us, he wasn’t doing well. He had a high fever, was very thirsty, and only weighed 2.5 kilograms (about 5.5 pounds). He was really sick with a bad infection.”

Oskar stayed at the hospital, where he got care all day and night to help him get better. Slowly but surely, he got stronger and was able to stand up again.

Thanks to the good news, Oskar was finally ready to go to his foster home and continue his journey to recovery.

After he arrived at the foster home, Oskar shocked everyone with his easy-going personality.

As soon as he got to his new home, Oskar made himself comfortable and turned into the most adorable purring machine. His foster caregiver said:

“He’s such a polite little guy and loves to chat, especially when he’s waiting for his food. He’s blind because of retinal atrophy, but he’s doing great. He gets around by listening to sounds and knows his way around the house so well that you wouldn’t even know he’s blind. It seems like he might be missing a ligament in one of his back legs, which makes his ankle twist.”

Oskar quickly settled into his foster home and started to thrive. He put on some weight and got a lot more energy. With that, his legs also got stronger, which helped him walk better on his own.

Even though he’s been through a lot, Oskar is still a sweet cat who loves talking to people. He’s so friendly that it’s clear he’ll find a great home really quickly.
