Bless that man! Even though I knew (from you) the kitten survived I was
on pins and needles until he stopped and rescued the kitten.



Exactly! Some of them came so close to running right over it. Luckily it
was a short video, or I wouldn't have any fingernails left.

Fortunately the kitten sort of froze in one spot. Some of the vehicles
clearly went over where it was cowering but they didn't hit it because
it didn't move. I doubt it was old enough to take off at a run. Even
if it could have, the poor thing must have been terrified. (I know *I*
was, just watching it.) You can see some people obviously swerving
around to avoid hitting it. But only one man stopped to help. Kudos to
him!

I wonder if there will be a follow up story. Will he adopt the kitten?
I'll have to look.

And yes, like others, I have to wonder how the kitten got there. I
doubt it just wandered onto a busy highway somewhere in Russia.
