Furry Friends Friday: Who saved whom?

Friday, Mar 10, 2023

Turkish firefighter Ali Cakas was digging through rubble five days after an initial series of earthquakes that hit his country last month, when he found a black-and-white kitten buried under the debris. 

  • The grateful cat, who was covered in dirt and had been stuck for nearly 130 hours, refused to leave Ali's side for the rest of the day. Ali was hopeful they could eventually locate the kitten's owner. 

🐱 🏠 Welcome home... As the days went on and no one came to claim the cat, Ali and his colleagues named him Enkaz – the Turkish word for debris. Eventually, the firefighter took his new fluffy friend home. 

  • "He has never fallen from my lap since the day he arrived," shared Ali. "We bonded quickly. We both had a tough time. We'll get through this trauma by hugging each other."
