Two men named 'heroes' after rescuing kitten from middle of road

A motorcyclist showed his softer side when he pulled over on the side of the road and ran to rescue a kitten with the help of another good Samaritan.

In footage shared to social media, the motorcycle driver can be heard yelling "No" before he is joined by another man, who also spotted the kitten and pulled over.

Together, the men then run to rescue the ginger cat from the middle of the road, halting oncoming traffic in the process.

The video, which has since been viewed more than 33,000 times, was captioned: “Just two guys saving a kitten’s life.”

If that weren’t adorable enough, according to one person who translated the conversation, the French-speaking men discuss how the cat ended up in the middle of the road, while also commenting on how cute the animal is.

After the first man says he is allergic to cats, the second man takes the kitten from him.

In response to the video, people have praised the men as “heroes”.

“What real heroes look like!” one person wrote.

Another tweeted: “Thank you so much for sharing this! That sweet little face says it all. Now I’m going to go cry a river.”
