14-Year-Old Boy Who Rushed To Save Cat Hanging Over A Bridge Gives Him A New Home

If you have a pet that you don’t want – give it to someone who does. Take it to a shelter. Erin Brown and her 14-year-old son, Gavin, were on their way to a birthday party on February 12 when they saw a heartless person throw a cat out of the window of a moving car. The terrified cat hit the pavement and tried to get off the highway.

It ran right in front of Erin’s car and jumped on top of the overpass and was about to jump down. That is when Gavin dashed out of the car and grabbed the cat. Erin was in shock. First, she saw the cat thrown out of a vehicle, then her son ran out into the road to save the cat!

The traumatized cat was breathing heavily, and his nails had been torn off trying to run across the highway. As you can see the cat was also very grateful. He cuddled up into Gavin’s arms. Gavin held on tight as if to say that everything was going to be okay.
