https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/russian-cat-called-masha-saves-baby-abandoned-in-the-cold-9983367.htmlA friendly neighbourhood cat has saved the life of a baby boy abandoned by his parents in a freezing Russian city.
The long-haired feline, affectionately named Masha by the blocks residents, discovered the baby boy inside a cardboard box in apartment block in the Russian city of Obninsk after hearing his cries in the cold.
Masha apparently climbed inside the box and wrapped herself around the abandoned child, believed to be less than 12 weeks old, to keep him warm.
Hearing Mashas loud meows, resident Irina Lavrova rushed to rescue the cat believing she was injured instead she discovered her curled around the now quiet baby.

She will have a much greater chance at a long life.
