Watch: Man braves swamp to saving crying cat

A poor kitty was stranded in a deep swamp for at least four days before finally being rescued.

“Chomper is the name I am temporarily giving to this unknown cat that was found stuck in a tree in a Louisiana swamp,” Randall Kolb, the Cat Rescue Guy shared on YouTube.

“He was discovered up high in a tree by a bird-watcher who reported it to the local animal shelter. After that, the cat apparently fell out of the tree into the water and climbed up on a small stump which is where I found him still wet. He probably climbed the tree when the ground was dry, but hurricane Harvey came along and brought lots of rain, flooding the swamp.”

"After rescuing him, I took him to the local animal shelter where it was discovered that he has a microchip. Efforts are being made to contact the owner."
