Good Samaritan
Ms Liang Yi took the video of the heartwarming incident while she was strolling around with her husband and spotted the elderly woman looking after the moggie, a regular in the area. She said that as the temperatures were soon falling below zero degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit).
The elderly woman can be seen bending downwards as the stray was eating food from a plastic bag. She then took out a piece of felt and put it around the cat’s body to see if it would fit which moved Ms Liang to capture the scene as she was ‘particularly moved’ and called her actions ‘full of love’.
Important message
The Good Samaritan was also looking after six stray dogs in the neighborhood according to Ms Liang who wants to build a warm bed for the cat after being inspired by the lady. ‘I would like to urge the public to pay more attention to stray animals,’ Ms Liang said, ‘Even if you don’t love them, please don’t hurt them,’ she urged.
