It’s a typical story that happens in Thailand on a regular basis, but thankfully the outcome had a happy ending for one furry feline. A video captured a python attempting to attack a cat in the middle of the night. Fortunately, no harm was done to either animal, but the snake failed to snag a meal.

Check out this video that’s circulating online! It captures the harrowing moment when a cat struggles to break free from the grasp of a snake. You can see how weak the cat is getting as it fights for its life. The odds were nearly against it.

Luckily, some kind-hearted people who were passing by didn’t ignore the poor kitty’s plight and rushed to help. They didn’t let even the fear of a huge python stop them from coming to the rescue. With great determination, they started hitting the snake with sticks to save the feline using whatever they had at hand. Their efforts paid off as the python eventually released its grip on the cat and slithered away.

The feline swiftly darted in the opposite way of the assailant, likely avoiding any harm as she sprinted away. The rescuers resumed their typical routine.
