The "Compassionate Action Award" is on its way to Lambright, says PETA, after he went out of his way to rescue the cat after noticing on Facebook that no one else was willing to help.

"When Tristan Lambright saw that his unique skills could save a cat from a deadly predicament, he jumped right in to help," says PETA Vice President Colleen O'Brien. "PETA hopes his bravery and kindness will inspire people everywhere to take action when animals are in danger."
