Rest in Peace, Cynthia Long

Written by Anne

You're driving along a highway and notice a cat (or a dog) stranded in the middle. Thousands of cars buzzing by and the poor animal just stands there. You know it's just a matter of time before thirst or hunger drives them into the road and you know there is no chance for them to make it to the other side.

So, what do you do?

Obviously, most people drive by. I am guessing most won't even notice the cat.

Cynthia Long, from Vermont was one of those pet angels who actually notice and pull over to try and help. She was hit by a car and died instantly. In the following mayhem, as traffic stopped, the cat must have safely made it away from the scene. Some would call her "a crazy cat lady", but to me she's a hero.

May she rest in peace.
