Photographer Scott Olson managed to capture this incredible image for the Los Angeles Times while documenting the destruction in Houston. A Houston news station looks like they were able to spot the same cat taking refuge on the hood of a car, giving us hope he’ll have a smile on his face soon.
You can only imagine what this cat was thinking. Luckily it was able to get out the water. pic.twitter.com/FQFelSfGUn
