Woman's Kind Gesture Toward Injured Squirrel Who Didn't Stand a Chance Tugs at the Heartstrings
Sometimes all it takes is one person to completely change an animal's life. People online are praising one woman who stepped up for a squirrel who needed her most. Katie Levans was heartbroken when she came across a squirrel who was 'having a hard time.' While some people would've let the poor thing fend for itself, Levans was moved to get the animal some help.
Levans was willing to go to extraordinary lengths to rescue the squirrel. The creature needed her! She wasn't going to let her down.
It can be really hard to know how to help a struggling animal. But with some quick thinking, Levans was able to get the animal some help. In the video she shared, it shows the squirrel looking so sickly. It's not clear what's wrong with the squirrel, but it really was in bad away, Levans took out her cat carrier — and the squirrel climbed right in. The woman then brought the squirrel to the California Wildlife Center, an hour away, where the animla was quickly taken into their care.
Sadly, she won't get any updates about the squirrel's health from this point on. But she should sleep well knowing that she probably saved the animal's life!
People in the comments section were so grateful that Levans was there. 'We were meant to help God's creatures. Thank you for this,' praised one commenter. 'That is a mama, she has babies. You better find her babies,' another commenter pointed out. 'Don't you worry these people are literal angels and will make sure whatever needs doing will get done,' chimed in someone else. 'We did this with a possum hit by a car. They were wonderful. I was crying so the woman took my number and called me. They saved her!!!' shared another person.
If you live in the Los Angeles area, you too can use the California Wildlife Center as an important resource. The organization saves so many animals and is always looking for people who want to get involved. You can donate, volunteer, or help with their conservation efforts through the California Wildlife Center website.
Many commenters really wanted an update on this squirrel in particular. But sadly it doesn't seem like Levans was able to get anymore information. In a follow up video, she shared that the rescue doesn't have the ability to update people on every animal that is brought to them. But have no fear! Something tells us this sweet creature is doing a-okay!
