Vets in Montana were able to revive a 3-year-old cat that was nearly frozen to death after the pet’s owners said they came home last week to find it encrusted in snow.

"Fluffy" the cat was brought in last week unresponsive with a body temperature that would not register on the clinic’s thermometers, Dr. Jevon Clark of the Animal Clinic of Kalispell said Thursday.

The cat's owners said they came home to find Fluffy in a hard-packed snowbank, as though the animal had been sitting in one spot for a long time while the blowing snow drifted up around it. It wasn’t clear how long Fluffy, an outdoor cat, had been there.

“She's crouched down looking like she's hunting something or something's in the snow bank," Clark said. "And then they realized, oh my gosh, she's not moving."

The vet's office warmed the cat using towels, cage warmers and intravenous fluids.
