Many cat rescue stories we see is about us rescuing a cat. But in this video, you’ll be surprised on who our hero is! While Opie the puppy was busy playing around the yard, he saw something that caught his attention! He found what seems to be a kitten behind their apartment building! Meet Roscoe, the kitten who’s covered in maggots and was stuck under a log! Opie refused to leave his new furry friends and opted to stay with him! That was the start of their never ending friendship! The family took Roscoe to the vet and after some treatment, Roscoe is getting better! This cat’s story of survival is one of a kind and must be shared. Watch the video below and be amazed!


That’s one sweet rescue! Thanks to this lovely dog, another cat is saved! Please leave a comment below if you have a sweet dog like Opie, who has such a big heart for cats!
