Life is unpredictably unexpected, and for some individuals, it may be excruciatingly unpleasant. Take, for example, this New Yorker. He was devastated when he lost his son in an accident and believed that his life would come to an end without him. The man, who was heartbroken and in anguish, sought solace in rescuing stray animals.

He’s a former Long Island, New York train conductor who has already rescued over 300 animals. In 2006, he was involved in a road accident and lost his 24-year-old son. The protagonist stumbled found more than 30 ill kittens while wandering around his neighborhood one day. He aided them all, and it was the beginning of a wonderful voyage.

He turned his home into a cat sanctuary and isn’t planning on stopping anytime soon. Chris registered his sanctuary under the name Happy Cat.

Chris intends to save at least twice as many animals as he has so far, with over 300 cats saved thus far. He believes that cats deserve a better life than the one they are now living on the streets. His refuge has plenty of space for them to explore, as well as heated towering structures and everything else they’ll need to live comfortably.

We applaud Chris’ decision and hope that others follow his example and channel their grief into something similar.
