Thai navy saves cats from sinking ship Photo: Reuters
In a purrfect rescue mission, a Thai navy sailor braved the sea to launch a dramatic rescue this week after discovering four cats had been abandoned on a sinking ship that caught fire off a paradise island.
After the crew had been taken to safety on Tuesday, the navy was sent back to the capsized vessel to look for an oil spill but instead, they discovered a few crew members who had been forgotten.
First-Class Petty Officer Wichit Pukdeelon of the navy s air and coastal defence division told Reuters, I used my camera to zoom in to the boat, and I saw one or two cats popping their heads out.
