Brave cat sacrifices himself after tackling deadly snake to save owners’ young kids

A brave cat sacrificed himself after successfully tackling a deadly snake so they could save the kids of his owner.

Arthur, a cat, leapt to the defence of 2 young children while they were playing in their back garden.

The cat decided to take on a killer eastern brown snake that slithered near the kids when they were playing.

The cat killed the intruder, but while doing such thing, they were bitten.

National Geographic ranks the Eastern Brown snake as the deadliest snake in the country.

It is also the most aggressive, fastest, and the second most toxic land snake that is living in the world.

After killing the snake, Arthur got on the feet and did what it used to do.

But one day after the incident, the cat was found collapsed and was not capable of moving because of the snake venom.

When the cat was rushed to the Tanawha Hospital on the Sunshine Coast for treatment, the damage had reached a point where it was irreversible.

The Animal Emergency Service Queensland released a statement about the incident, saying:

It was with the heaviest of hearts his owners had to leave Arthur after he gained his angel wings. His family… remember him fondly and are forever grateful he saved the children’s lives. Arthur was always getting into mischief; he had previously visited us before having been in accidents and was very much loved by our team.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of the cat, may the cat rest in peace.
