Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / April 2006Cat saves baby's life
I just saw this story at: http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/16042006/6/n-odds-cat-saves-baby-s-life.html I've pasted it below in case it doesn't stay at that URL for long: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cat saves baby's life Sat Apr 15, 09:27 PM EST BERLIN (Reuters) - A cat saved the life of a newborn baby abandoned on the doorstep of a Cologne house in the middle of the night by meowing loudly until someone woke up, a police spokesman said Saturday. "The cat is a hero," Cologne police spokesman Uwe Beier said. "Its loud meowing got the attention of the homeowner and saved the baby from suffering life-threatening hypothermia. The homeowner opened door to see why the cat was making so much noise and discovered the newborn." Beier said the boy was taken to hospital at 5 a.m. on Thursday, when overnight temperatures fell toward zero, and had suffered only mild hypothermia. He said there was no indication of what happened to the boy's mother. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  SignatureRhino "Rhino" <no.offline.contact.please@nospam.com> wrote in news:iGs0g.104 $wK1.11890@news20.bellglobal.com: > Cat saves baby's life > Sat Apr 15, 09:27 PM EST That's really amazing.

Sad for the baby, good for the cat! At least the mother had the courtesy to abandon the child on a doorstep rather than putting the infant in a trash dumpster.

' That's true. And Germany is certainly far more civilized now than it was mid last century. I wouldn't vilify any particular country, and I don't let my own country off the hook, either. I feel it's my duty as a US citizen to speak up about things happening here that I believe are wrong. In general, it seems the western European countries, along with Canada and many others, have more civilized policies in many ways than we do here, which is scandalous considering that this is an extremely wealthy country. We should not have any poor people here at all! It's bad enough that we have politicians who are trying to take everything away from struggling people and give it to rich people, but when ordinary working people actually support those policies, I'm just flabbergasted. It angers me, actually - I mean, if you want to be an idiot and shoot yourself in the foot, fine, but why do you have to wreck it for the rest of us?? On the other hand, we haven't had millions of people marching and cheering for the complete eradication of certain selected groups of people, as they did in Germany in the 30s and 40s. I think the potential for it is certainly here, but we haven't gotten that far as yet. We can't forget that what happened back then can't ever happen again.

I think it's a shame someone feels so stigmatized by having a child out of wedlock (I am *assuming* here) that they have to dump a child.

Unfortunately, a lot of teenagers are feeling the urge at a time when they are still extremely worried about not calling attention to themselves.

Of course I'm from a much older generation, but it used to embarrass ME to buy sanitary napkins (let alone tampons)! Fortunately, there wasn't any alternative to THOSE, so I just had to be embarrassed. SignatureNewsGuy.Com 30Gb $9.95 Carry Forward and On Demand Bandwidth Monique Y.

If they live in a small town, could be the folks at the pharmacy have known them all their lives, and might tell their folks. I guess they could go to a drugstore in another town, but if there isn't much public transit and they're not old enough to drive, that could be difficult. I think that's one big reason some parents make sure their kids have access to birth control. They know that, no matter what they say, if their kids want to have sex, they're probably going to do it, and better to make sure they're protected than end up pregnant (or a father), or worse, with HIV or hepatitis.

Amen. I lived in one of those small towns, but was lucky in that I was dating a guy from a college that was two hours drive from us. He was able to buy condoms there. When I went to college myself, I went to planned parenthood and got myself on the pill. With my own kids, I have been tossing condoms in a drawer in the main bathroom for years now. I've also driven Mandy and her boyfriend to the doctor's office for their bc appointment. I want to be a grandma, but I want my grandchild to be loved, wanted, and planned.

Thank you so much for being a pragmatic mom =) Signaturemonique, who spoils Oscar unmercifully pictures: http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca ALL US ME KNOWN THAT feeling Evelyn sorry to get off this topic Why is it woman tell men oh go to the store and buy us sanitary napkins of course you know we are going to do it ( HELP US WE ARE LOST ) and we get there and there is a hundred different varieties to choose from. I played a bad trick on my wife and daughter once both same time of the month; no comment. They both need some and asked me to go get their brand I ask what it was the gave me a vague description of the bag. I went into the bathroom and got the bags and took them with me unknown to them. Now they are the type only to buy what for they need now and forget about next time. That night was terrible rainstorm I went to one of my store and brought home every type there was in the store came home and dumped everyone of them in front of them except their type. Ohh the look on their faces was worth it when they found their brand was not there and I was not going back out in the storm. After a little fussing I said what is about men that all women should know tell us exactly what you want and you will get it no round about way to it . I dropped a 4 moth supply of their brand into their laps and said next time the car does something strange, you need something, you want something or feelings need to be expressed I want to know what it exactly was or is and not in a round about way. I happily slept on the couch that night Matthew >>>Or at a church, IIRC.

Jesus, how do you think *we* feel? We're the ones who have to use the dumb things! Matthew, you have a real habit of generalizing about women that bugs me. I would never send my husband to the store on a wild goosechase to try to figure out what I wanted. If something's important to me, I'm specific about it, and if I think there might be confusion or a judgement call, I'll get it myself. That's aside from the fact that I try to keep essentials stocked so that no one needs to make an emergency trip, anyway. By the way, it's no surprise at all that your wife and daughter have the same cycle; women in close proximity typically match each other. If one is one a hormonal birth control, that one will be the "controlling" influence. Freshman dorms are pretty funny because, at the start, one or two girls determine the cycles of the whole group. As the year progresses, more and more girls get on the pill (always for justifiable medical reasons, of course, never, ever because they might be having sex *snicker*), and those who aren't are ping ponging like mad.

I think that teenagers are just embarrassed by everything. Signaturemonique, who spoils Oscar unmercifully pictures: http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca > >>Or at a church, IIRC.

Back in the seventies, I had surgery for a pilonoidal cyst, which, with some simplification, is an ingrown hair in the cleft of the buttocks, right at the base of the spine. It can be quite painful and debilitating. The procedure used at the time was remove the cyst and leave a relatively open incision that was to fill with scar tissue. Naturally, it bleeds a lot. There really isn't any good way to strap a dressing there, and the usual gauze pads can't absorb the fluids. Since there's no real need for sterility, just for cleanliness, a fairly standard procedure was to tape sanitary napkins over an inner dressing. After a couple of weeks, I accompanied, on wobbly feet, my then wife to the drugstore, to restock, the cart filled with packages of generic sanitary napkins. The clerk looked at Camille with some trepidation, wondering what was wrong such that she needed such a quantity. Now, Camille is a trained vocalist and also a herald in Renaissance reenactment. She can project her voice over a wide area, without actually shouting. Responding to the clerk's stare, she said "Oh, these aren't for me. They are for my husband." From then on, I have referred to them as masculine napkins. >> >>Or at a church, IIRC.

I've always figured that someone who dumps a child just doesn't have the wherewithal, either financially or emotionally, to raise a child.

Well, if someone's simply too poor, then yeah, that would be a pretty extreme thing to do. But when someone is drugged out or has mental illness or severe emotional problems, who knows what they might do? I wouldn't necessarily expect such a person's thinking to be very sensible or even ethical. Joyce >> > IIRC.

IF they carried them to a doorstep they could have taken them to an open are with people aruond and left them Berlin is not wilderness or limited buildings there are plenty of places that they could have taken the baby to and left the baby to be found easily It does not say in the news report IMO if they truly wanted someone to find the baby the person would have rang the bell till somone turned a light on or they heard movement and than ran others wise well you get the picture unless that someone not in the right frame of mind fully Any one want to bet the mother turns up or the child turns out to be missing > NewsGuy.Com 30Gb $9.95 Carry Forward and On Demand Bandwidth > I just saw this story at: > http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/16042006/6/n-odds-cat-saves-baby-s-life.html I wonder whose kitty it was?

One was a cat who awakened her human when the house was on fire. The woman was very deeply asleep and didn't wake up from the cat's cries, so she scratched her human on the face. That did the trick. :) This kind of thing isn't an isolated incident, but I think it's important to note that this cat wasn't trapped in the house - there was an open window in the bedroom where the woman was sleeping. The cat could have run out to safety, but she stayed to wake her human, who had once rescued her and saved her life. The other was about a family driving cross-country. The mother was driving and her two sons slept in the back with their cat curled up with them. (This cat was very amenable to travel.) But the mother started to fall asleep, and strayed into the wrong lane, where she almost had a head-on with an 18-wheeler. But the cat jumped into her lap and woke her up, just in time. I often wonder how much truth there is to the stories on these shows. The original people are interviewed, so clearly, *something* happened that seemed miraculous. But I wonder how much is exaggerated or left out. After reading the story of the kitty in Berlin, I'm more inclined to think that this stuff really does happen. There was also a very sweet story (on the show) about a Border Collie saving his best friend, another dog who had fallen in a well. He ran and got a human to follow him to the site, the guy called for more help, and they rescued the dog. (Although this story *really* begs you to say, "Did Timmy fall in the well?" :)) Joyce They know who they love very well for they know we love them with all out hearts and we are proud to be their slaves and will serve them with our last breath for they are the air we breathe > > I just saw this story at: > > http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/16042006/6/n-odds-cat-saves-baby-s-life.html [quoted text clipped - 32 lines] > > Joyce > > I just saw this story at: > > http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/16042006/6/n-odds-cat-saves-baby-s-life.html [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] > out.

From direct experience, I had Clifford (RB) defend me, when I was knocked out of breath, from a "helpful" person trying to massage my broken leg. Mr. Clark is a nurse cat, far beyond the routine. Among close friends, Schiz will almost drag an adult to a child's bedroom, when the child is having a seizure behind a closed door. Also a nurse cat, he will, when a family member is sick, stay at or on the bed, and summon a relief cat to be in position before he goes for food or the litterbox. He gets very sheepdoggish when there's more than one patient. >> > I just saw this story at: >> > http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/16042006/6/n-odds-cat-saves-baby-s-life.html [quoted text clipped - 35 lines] > or the litterbox.

When Rob was receiving radiation and Chemo for his cancer, Huey earned his first promotion to Specialist by being with Rob every step of the way. If he had to be gone for even a moment, he'd make sure that either Tanada or QC were there to spell him. Tanada also spent a lot of time with Rob, but she wasn't willing to keep Rob's head warm like Huey was. Rob was bald (ok, parts of him still is bald) from the radiation and the bolts in his brain plates would get really cold from the room temperature. Huey would make sure that Rob's head was kept warm. He is still Rob's Protector and head warmer.
