Some great guy in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada found a tiny kitten frozen outside that had no vital signs and was not breathing. A real miracle happened when he brought it inside of a warm subway car and did some kitty CPR. The kitten begin to breathe again, and started to move around. This is a picture of it a half an hour later. Apparently, this guy is going to keep it. I love a happy ending...
Edit: Wow, thanks for the viral. Animals touch our hearts for the short time they are with us. We followed up on the story and the kitten is alive and well, healthy and happy. Thanks for all the pictures of your pets :)

As an EMD.. if it's less than 6 hours they are not dead until they are warm.
frostybox
as a vet nurse, its a 1kg kitten whose body function depends on the heart pumping more than a human. They are dead long before 6hr.
DreadPierateRoberts
Emergency Medical dead?
todayok
What dinglenuts EMD is trying to say is hypothermia slows body functions sufficiently as to resemble death; treat &warm before declaringdead

Like I said, no miracle.
ariafiresong
Well, sure was to the kitten.
TeflonTrout
If you think it's a miracle that someone was kind to a kitten you either have never met a kitten or a normal person
ariafiresong
From the kitten's point of view. They got hella saved.

what a tactic of the kitten to find a good hooman!

This gives me a little more hope for humanity

It was a fake death, cats are aliens, they are highly intelligent. Now that kitty can start it’s own human experiment

What kind of sick fuck cares so little about the suffering of another creature? "They'll stop meowing soon anyway"?
arumunus
I can't say... but I'll tell you what I ripped that machine away from the wall to get the kitten and they let me, so, there was that.

Should still go to the vet for a CAT scan.... Just to be safe.

Nah, he's keeping it, so a PET scan will work just fine.

Sounds like you are a vet fishing for money.

I dunno. Those puppies ain’t cheap!

good thing this post is about a frozen kitten then!

BOO!
TeflonTrout
That's not a miracle, that's using insufficiently sensitive equipment to measure vital signs
jadespider
the miracle isn't that CPR worked, the miracle is that someone found the cat and was moved to try.
TeflonTrout
Still not a miracle. It's a kitten, you'd have to be a real bastard to not want to help
ctotheg2
Now you're just being difficult. Congratulations you pointed out anyone would do it. But you didn't in this case, he did.
TeflonTrout
Difficult? Your the one crediting the thing that created suffering for letting one go. Thanks for sparing this 'un, benevolent tyrant
ColoradoDuckling
I checked your vitals. I'm sorry, there was no sign of a functioning heart.
TeflonTrout
Because I pointed out a fact? I'm 100% cheering the kittensaver. He deserves the credit, not "miracles."
glassweaver
Not dying if you're so cold you can't perceptibly breathe anymore is a miracle in my books. I respect your right to disagree though.
Laellana
You must be a riot at parties
TeflonTrout
It must be a blast to be told something you should be proud of was all someone's imaginary friend
Laellana
Lolwhat
TeflonTrout
That, and who put the kitten there in the first place? You credit him with saving one, then you have to credit him for the dead ones too
