Severe flooding, caused by heavy rains, has wreaked havoc in southern Thailand. However, amid the destruction, a heartwarming video has gone viral, showcasing the kindness of a young boy. The footage shows the boy wading through knee-deep water, carefully holding three kittens.
The video was shared on a Facebook page, thanking the boy for his thoughtful gesture. It shows the child, drenched from the rain, crossing through floodwaters to reach safety while holding the three kittens in his arms. Upon reaching a dry area, he gently places the kittens down before walking away, leaving the animals to be observed by other children nearby.
Since its release, the video has garnered widespread attention and positive feedback. Many people praised the boy’s act of kindness. One user commented, “The kid may be small, but he has a big heart,” while another remarked, “The cats were excited to meet the mainland.” Many users simply expressed their appreciation with comments like “Thank you, kind-hearted brother.”
Most comments were in Malay, the official language of Malaysia, reflecting the widespread admiration across the region.
Monsoon rains have caused severe flooding in both Malaysia and southern Thailand, resulting in significant destruction. The floods have claimed the lives of over six people in Malaysia, while the death toll is even higher in Thailand. Tens of thousands of people have been displaced due to the rising waters.
Authorities in both countries have prepared shelters and evacuation plans to assist those affected. They continue to monitor the situation, as rainfall is expected to continue, further exacerbating the flooding crisis.
