EMT gives mouth to mouth on cat

I cannot get this linking. I thought that it was EMT uses CPR to save a cat's life in Lansford, Pennsylvania.
 
It looks like AOL has let the link expire.
 
aw, animal stuff always makes me cry. now my eyes are watering. i shouldn't have watched that. does anyone know if the kitty made it?
 
on the original vid i had from aol it said that yes the cat did make it :D
 
Apparently, the only way to get on the news as an EMT is save something cute.

Nice story, though. I assume you recognize ROSC by the claws embedded in your cheeks?
 
Ok, I(I mean um, um My friend); has suffered enough for giving kitty
CPR. Don't tell me that you've never been driving down the road and just got the hankerin' to go full ACLS on a possum. It's practically a requirement here in TN.
 
I think thats awesome that that emt did mouth to mouth on a cat, recently a local animal shelter/vets office gave our fire company money to purchase a complete set of animal O2 masks, we havent used them yet but i hope im there the day we do, one question though, what do you guys think the flow rate should be set to on the tank?
 
25 L per minute LOL no. Probably depends on the size of the animal.
 
well the tanks that we carry on our rescue can only go to 15lpm, but our squad has a few tanks that can go to 25lpm, so im guessing like a large dog would go 15lpm while a cat or small dog could go for like...6-8? maybe 10lpm?
 
aww that guy is my hero!
 
Mouth to Snout

My crew once stood by at a structure fire where no one was injured except a cat that had collapsed in the street. One of my partners started giving the cat mouth to snout resuscitation when a newspaper photographer took a picture of his attempt. We are a volly group and he had called in sick that day for what ever reasons he had. The next morning, on the front page of the local paper was a LARGE picture of him with the cat. The picture had to be 8 x 10, in full color and his face was clearly seen. The cat survived and ran off shortly after.

He said the next day that his boss almost fired him but was a cat lover and let him off with a warning.
