CALIFORNIA – A cat caught under a bridge now has plenty of food and a warm place to stay Tuesday night, all thanks going to a San Francisco Animal Care and Control officer with a soft spot for felines.
The rescue was documented with photos and video which were tweeted by SFACC Officer Edith.

Officer Martinez spotted the cat under the foot bridge at Geary and Webster near Japantown Monday.
He needed to climb over the fence to get to her.

It took a minute or two, but Martinez was able to pull up part of the fence, pull her out and get the cat into a comfortable box.
The kitty was a bit emaciated and dehydrated, so she was excited to get a bit of food.

At first, she couldn’t decide between the wet and dry food, however, she soon settled on some meat paste. The cat is now recovering well at SF Animal Care and Control.
