My boyfriends mother's cat got in freezer yesterday about noon and she found it in there about 2 hours ago (in freezer about 22 hours), it is still meowing but not moving other than it's front left leg is twitching. Is there anything we can do for it? Or should we have it put to sleep?

Anyone with any intelligence would have taken the animal to a vet immediately and not write into a website!!!! You need reporting to the RSPCA!

Put him a warm towel and rush to vet. He's so cute. Good luck...

Well, I'd say to either keep him close to a fireplace or something really warm and cozy. give him warm milk rub him or something. If he doesn't react, rush him to the closest vet available. He's so cute I wish you guys good luck!

At first glance, I thought, is that question a joke?! My initial response is: For you any human to go hang out in a freezer for 22 hours and come out and then tell us what you are experiencing and are you in pain. I can guarantee that if it were you, you would seek immediate help. It is your boyfriends mothers cat, right? How in the world did that kitty get into that freezer without being noticed? I am livid thinking about what the kitty had to go through, it upsets me greatly!!!

I am always suspiscious of anyone who refers to his/her pet as "it". What underlies this attitude explains this whole tragedy.

If you knew about what time the cat got in the freezer then you must have seen the cat get into the freezer...why didn't you take it out then?

How can a cat get into a freezer, and you not notice this before closing it up! The mind boggles, get it to the Vet asap, the poor puss, really hurts me to think of it happening!

it isnt her cat so stop havin a go! you dont know anything about her boyfriends mother either so stop being judgemental! people use this site for advice NOT for you idiots to make them feel bad especially when they are probably already feeling aweful themselves. and in answer to how they knew it was what time, i know i remember times in the day i do things even if everythin is different from day-to-day AND usually u go to the freeze to get things out i.e. it could have been lunch and tea time! as for 'it', the cat isnt the woman who wrote this and you may have been affected because of someting from your life... leave people alone and let the experts answer!!!

I had 2 kittens that was frozen in the bottom of an old junk care from it being to cold. Heard them meowing and rescued them. I wrapped them in a towl and put them over a heater vent for 5 or 6 hours it took them awhile to come out of it but they finalle came around. The were so frozen the couldn't move. But now they are grown and full of life> Hope your kitty is ok.
