Viral video shows man rescuing stranded, shivering tabby cat during Hurricane Ian
There have been hundreds of rescues in the wake of Hurricane Ian, but perhaps none went more viral than this one.
Mike Ross saved a terrified tabby cat at Bonita Beach on Wednesday and the video has been seen more than 1 million times on social media.
Watch video of the rescue in the video player above.
Not long after Ross saved the frightened feline, the air conditioning unit it was perched on was washed into the ocean.
The female cat is now living with Ross and his family while they try to find its owner.
Since most veterinarians' offices are still closed, they haven't been able to see if the cat is microchipped.
If she isn't, they will keep her and decided that Ian would be a fitting name. But since she's a girl, maybe they'll call her Iana or Storm, instead.
