The owners of Blueberry knew that something was off about their cat. Without wasting much time, they brought their beloved pet to the Caldwell Mill Animal Clinic in Birmingham. Unfortunately, things didn’t go well and with the passage of time, Blueberry’s situation got worse. The attendees at the medical center were unable to fathom the exact reason for her sickness.
Thus, an expert intervention was required immediately and a couple of skilled technicians approached the center. Upon closely examining the cat, they found out via X-rays that the cat had swallowed something that remained stuck. This was the root cause of her deteriorating condition. Without wasting much time, the technicians called for Dr. Nicole Martin. On any other day, this would be the perfect ending to this story where the doctor would arrive and save the kitten. Unfortunately, winters sometimes narrate a harsh tale.
Lying between Dr. Martin and the clinic were three miles of rugged, icy road along with freezing cold temperatures. This is where Dr. Martin decided to don the cape of a superhero. Without thinking much, she got out of her house and started to walk! After completing a tiresome hike, she reached the clinic and eventually managed to save Blueberry.
Speaking about her experience of getting out into the cold, Dr. Martin stated, “There was no other option other than to walk… We’ve been with her for days at this point, realizing how much we loved her and, once we saw the X-rays of what was making her sick, it was just in time we all got together to help save her life.” Surely, this was one of the most extraordinary tales of courage that not only shows Dr. Martin’s human side but also portrays her immense affection for innocent animals.
However, this is not the only instance in which one of our devoted pets miraculously saved their human companion.
