Heartwarming Story Of A Pool Guy Saved A Drowning Squirrel’s Life With CPR
Rick Gruber is a pool man from Phoenix, Arizona. He has found this little ground squirrel drowning in a pool where he was working at. He gave this poor little thing CPR. And sure he didn’t go so far as to give it a mouth-to-mouth, for fear that he might be bitten or catch some diseases. Fortunately, this little guy showed signs of life, he opened his eyes and coughed up some fluid. And this kind poor man said he would do CPR for anybody, a rodent, a dog, a cat, anything. He is really compassionate! ( via: borepanda )
