A rescuer from Florida, was left in shock, after she found two grey cats abandoned in a field. Unable to move, they were completely paralysed with fear.

Allie, from Jacksonville, Florida, runs Chloe and Nala's rescue group alongside her daughter.

They manage multiple colonies, providing food and shelter, and sterilising stray cats to prevent further litters.

Unable to move

It was during a visit to one of the colonies that they spotted Oslo and Dorian, two beautiful grey cats who had been abandoned by their owner.

When Allie's friend first spotted the cats, she thought they were dead. Oslo's eye's were open, but he couldn't move.

"They sat in the same position for over 3 hours. They never moved, they were so scared", Allie told Newsweek. 

The urgent rescue

Thankfully, the cat lovers knew exactly what to do. They carefully picked the pair up, taking them in to their care. 

"Once inside they acclimated very well, using the litter box right away. playing with toys and climbing on the cat tree," Allie said. "They were nervous but friendly", Allie explained in an update. 

Still intact, the team suspects the duo were abandoned to avoid the costs of neutering. Had they not be found, they may have contributed to the stray cat crisis in America. 

A 2014 study estimated there are around 60-100 million feral cats trying to survive across the country. But for these fortunate brothers, their rescue marks a new beginning. They will soon be looking for a forever home together.
