Cat Rescued From The Sewer Filled With Stormwater

by Navkiran

The stray animals have it tough out there, and it's a struggle to survive each day. Many of them die at the hands of hunger, injuries, or harsh weather conditions.

The lucky ones manage to find a way into warm housing or get fed by kind humans. But not all of them are fortunate enough to get such treatment.

They have to constantly stay on their toes, avoiding dangers or finding food. They're constantly moving around, trying to find shelter and safety.

It was the same with this cat when she was trapped, and the storm was roaring outside. So this is how this overwhelming story goes.

When Tropical Storm Henri hit the Hicksville, Long Island area, it was raging and left the streets rumbling. This poor cat trying to find a shelter was stuck in a sewer and was in a great deal of trouble.

Heavy rainfall and stuck; it was looking bad for the poor cat as she was about to drown. Fortunately, the rescuers arrived and saved the little kitty in the nick of time.

The following story is about how this helpless cat was rescued and named "Henrietta" after the storm. Read how she found a new home and a loving family.

The rescuer John Debacker arrived with his friends, where the kitten was stuck. Heavy rain awaited them as they started the rescue operation.

Struggle to save the little life

The stormwater started to flow into the drain, and the policeman pulled the sewer top off. Then one of them freed and pushed the cat to the side, where John grabbed her just in time.
