While working at a summer camp before her junior year of college, Devin Sinnott, Chicago senior, saved a kitten after a camper heard it screeching in the bushes. When Sinnott found the kitten, its tiny, fluffy head was caught in a tractor tire. After lathering the kitten’s head with vegetable oil, Sinnott freed the cat and later named it Lawrence, after the boy who first heard its cries.
“I saved Larry’s life and every day he saves mine,” Sinnott says.
Sinnott and Larry will be friends for at least nine lives, she adds.
