Russian figure skater Gleb Lutfullin in an interview “Sports Express” He said the situation of Twix, the cat who was thrown off the train by the Russian Railways conductor in Kirov, seemed crazy.
According to him, the owner of the pet should also take responsibility for what happened.
“Many media presented the situation as if the conductor had let the cat out while walking. But there are different videos. I think this is a wild situation. Both parties are to blame – both the conductor and the cat’s owner. But I couldn’t throw him out into the cold like that. On the contrary, I would take him with me and get on the train,” said the athlete.
On January 18, it was learned that a conductor in Kirov threw one of the passengers’ cat into the cold, mistaking it for a stranger. The animal was transported by the owner’s father and a travel ticket was issued for the cat. At one point the animal got out of the carrier and began wandering around the car. The conductor decided that the cat had entered the train from the street and brought it down to the platform before the train departed. Hundreds of volunteers were looking for the cat.
Previously figure skater Matvey Vetlugin statedTwix the cat should not have been thrown off the train at -30°C.
