rescue cat“Then she was walking and kept looking at me to follow [and] led me straight to the path that would take me back down to the valley.”-lost hiker

This local feline in Gimmelwald, Switzerland has a reputation for helping hikers in distress by shepherding them through the Swiss Alps to the safety of town according to People.

 A Hungarian hiker recently found himself in distress after he sprained his ankle and the route he had planned on taking was blocked, but just when he was reevaluating his situation this little creature showed up and led him to safety. Funny enough, the area is also known as Bernese Oberland, famous for its mountain dogs.

The cat belongs to a couple that owns a hostel nearby and has been helping people for years.  Her is a video from a hiker in 2013 coming across the mountain rescue cat out on the trail:
