Dubai police save cat trapped in flood

As unprecedented rainfall battered Dubai into submersion and then carried on battering, chaos gripped the country. Flights have been canceled. Schools have been closed. Metro stations have been declared off limits. And more importantly, a cat was found in need of rescue. Dubai police shared the video of the cat as it clung desperately to a car door. It is unclear at this stage whether the cat owned the vehicle, whether it was trying to gain access to claw at the seats for some reason, or was just trying to stay undrowned. In any case, the cat was rescued by passing police, who uploaded the video with ‘every life counts in Dubai.’ All nine of them.
