土耳其消防员阿里·卡卡斯

安徽 金新林

Ali Cakas is a 33-year-old world famous mountain biker and coach for the Turkish national mountain bike team.He's also a firefighter, so when the natural disaster occurred, he didn't hesitate to answer the call.He was searching a collapsed apartment building in Nurdagi,Türkiye, when he found one very tiny survivor.

The little black and white cat was clearly very happy to see his rescuers, because from then on the cat refused to leave Ali's side!A photo of Ali wearing a bicycle helmet and goggles（护目镜）with the cat resting on his shoulder quickly went viral,pulling the heartstrings of animal lovers across the globe.

It seems that the cat had been trapped for several days and nights before Ali rescued him,and this grateful cat wasn't about to let his hero out of his sight! Faced with such incredible gratitude, Ali had no choice but to adopt the animal and bring him home for good.Ali named the cat Enkaz, which means“rubble”in Turkish,which seems like a very fitting nickname for a cat that has been through so much.

The cat seems to be settling into his new home very nicely,and Ali even set Enkaz up with his own dedicated Instagram page so the kitty's new worldwide fans can keep up with his every move.This is a lucky cat! Enkaz must have used up a few of his nine lives while trapped in that collapsed building,but we're so glad Ali found him in time.
