Nearly 2,64,000 apartments in Turkey were damaged by the earthquake and it has become a major challenge for rescuers to find people under the rubble. But he has fought against all odds to save his life. Several videos have emerged from the quake-hit country showing incredible human and animal rescues. A few days ago, a cat was rescued by a member of the Mardin Fire Department and now she won’t leave his side.
Anton Gerashchenko, an adviser to the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, shared the news on social media. He took to Twitter on February 16 and posted a video of the cat with the rescuer. It shows the cat named ‘Rubble’ sitting on the rescuer’s shoulder and hugging his face.
