Hero saves smallest kitten ever on busy highway

Cats may have nine lives, but kittens only have one.

On Sept. 12, a tiny kitten ran onto a busy highway in the city of Kalingrad, Russia. For minutes, the kitten stood there frozen, until one good Samaritan stopped his car in the middle of traffic and pulled her to safety.

It's unclear whether the cat failed to move out of injury or fear. Video footage of the event was provided by “Safe City” Kaliningrad, which does safety surveillance for the city.

Watch, and quietly freak out.
