20-Year-Old Blind Cat Rescued By Strangers After Falling Through Floating Ice
HuffPost
Tiki, a geriatric Massachusetts cat, is back home and doing well after his terrifying icy ordeal.
Tiki, a 20-year-old blind black-and-white cat, likes to roam about outdoors. But this time he caused a scare after he was seen on ice floating in a Massachusetts pond and then fell in.
He has an alert passerby and a couple of nearby construction workers to thank for his rescue.
“The crackling happened, and I was like, hysterical,” passerby Dawn Felicani recalled Thursday. “And all of a sudden, it fell in! It’s little head was sticking out! I’m in tears, and I’m freaking out.”
She called first responders and a local animal control officer in Westford on Monday. One of two construction workers at a neighboring house hopped into a rowboat and the other pushed him out and helped him navigate Nabnasset Pond. The worker in the boat used a shovel as he moved to break through the ice and fetched him from the water.
Tiki was taken inside, toweled off and wrapped in blankets.
