Many animals are vulnerable to the risks of cold weather, just like people are. They are susceptible to conditions like hypothermia and frostbite, so it is always encouraging when people go above and beyond to keep them warm.

Like the farmer who used a really creative and surprising solution to improvise and rescue the life of a freezing baby cow.

Dean Gangwer farms in Rossville, Indiana, and he raises cattle there. In 2015, Dean came upon a surprising new addition to his property on a chilly morning.

He had no idea that one of his cows had given birth in the middle of the night. Sadly, she gave birth to her calf on top of a mound of snow, and the little one was now freezing.

Dean struggled to keep his eyes open and could see that the calf was breathing heavily. In an attempt to save the cow, he raced it to his house.

Using his knowledge of cattle, he determined that the calf required a hot bath. and Dean just so happened to have his hot tub, the ideal cow-sized bath, ready to go!

As strange as it may sound, the strategy was a huge success.

Leroy and I had a wonderful bath for an hour after I got in fully clothed and held him up to prevent him from drowning, Dean said WRTV. “We both came out warm and I think the end story’s going to be great for him.”

Warm, warming blankets were put around the farmer’s calf following that calming jacuzzi session.

The calf’s name is Leroy. The cow was soon prepared to rejoin the herd when his body temperature stabilized.

While the farmer’s decision to share his hot tub with the cows was a thoughtful and quick decision that helped rescue the small cow, he says that it won’t happen often.

“Leroy has concluded his hot-tubbing,” he declared. “His days in the hot tub are definitely over, but he may still sunbathe occasionally in the grass in the future.”

Fans of “Wheel of Fortune” are protesting, believing contestant Megan was wrongfully denied $40,000 for a potentially correct response. Megan, a high school choir director from California, faced a bonus puzzle under the “Living Thing” category. The incomplete phrase “_ N’R _ _ ” eventually revealed “P_N’ RC _ D” after Megan’s letter choices.

Viewers vented their frustration online. One complained, “The woman got screwed on the #WheelOfFortune bonus puzzle tonight; she totally said ‘PINK ORCHID’ right at the start.” Another added, “I lip read and use subtitles because I am deaf in one ear. She said ‘Pink Orchid.’ Without a doubt!”

Fans urged the show to review the footage, believing Megan deserved the prize. This incident follows other recent criticisms of the show, including a controversial decision during a “Rhyme Time” category on January 22, where viewers contested the ruling on the phrase “Absolutely Positively,” arguing it did not rhyme.

The letter “M” appearing on the lines of your palm is an intriguing topic that often sparks curiosity, and it’s believed to have special meaning. For those who notice an “M” on their palm, it typically forms when the major lines of the hand—such as the heart, head, and life lines—intersect. This symbol has fascinated people for centuries, and it’s common to wonder if it holds any deeper significance.

Throughout history, it has been customary to seek meaning in the way hand lines are drawn. These lines don’t look the same for everyone, and no two people have identical palmistry patterns.

On her way to work, a nurse in Essex, England, discovered a suitcase on the sidewalk. Curious, she opened it to find 15 kittens, just 3 to 5 weeks old, hidden inside. The suitcase had air holes, indicating that whoever left them wanted the kittens to survive. It was also placed near an animal shelter.

The nurse contacted shelter worker Alison Gamble, who found the kittens in decent health but noted they were separated from their mother too soon. Staff are now providing round-the-clock care for the vulnerable kittens until they’re old enough to be adopted.

This act of abandonment, though troubling, has given the kittens a chance at a better future, thanks to compassionate people stepping in to help.
