Blind cat helps stray kitten on the brink with life-saving blood transfusion

Reported byBBC News ↗·Sourced by Goodlede

What backs it

An 11-week-old stray kitten named Dandelion, found near-death with severe life-threatening anemia in Bradford, UK, received a blood transfusion from Carrots, a blind therapy cat in the same sanctuary, which stabilized him and bought time for specialist care.

Worth noting

The transfusion does not cure Dandelion's anemia; he requires ongoing veterinary monitoring and medication.
