On a frigid January day, residents of Cattage Grove, Minnesota were shocked to see a Calico cat frozen to the ground.
The 10-month-old cat couldn’t move at all, and she was in danger of catching hypothermia. A couple of Good Samaritans quickly called up the Animal Humane Society. They rushed over to help the cat, who they later named Briana.
“It had only been two degrees below zero the night before. They rushed the kitten to our Woodbury shelter care,” Zoe Clarke of Animal Humane Society told Love Meow.
Briana was lethargic and couldn’t stand on her own. The veterinarians knew they had to warm her up quickly or she wouldn’t survive the night. The vets wrapped little Briana’s body in blankets and heating pads, and they also gave her subcutaneous fluids and medicine to help with the pain.
Thankfully, the medicine and blankets worked, and Briana started recovering.
The veterinarians and shelter staff stayed with Briana around-the-clock, making sure she was okay. As Briana started to feel better, her personality came out. The veterinarians learned that she had bad eyesight, and she was a bit shy. When she first met a new person, she would sniff them a few times. Once, she got to know a person’s scent, she would warm up to them, and she would cuddle with them.
Once Briana started feeling better, Animal Humane Society moved her into a wonderful foster home. Her foster parents are working with her to help her become less shy. Slowly but surely, Briana is coming out of her shell.
On Valentine’s Day 2018, Animal Humane Society introduced Briana to the world on their Instagram page.

Animal Humane Society did a great job helping Briana recover after her ordeal. This sweet cat has made an amazing recovery, and now, she’ll soon be on her way to her perfect forever home!
