"I really like being outside, helping people and letting them know what's going on," says nine-year-old Cohen Brownlee about his role as carrier for the Goldstream B次元官网网址 Gazette, a job he takes very seriously.

While his carrier role might be an opportunity to save up money for soccer cards B次元官网网址� not before he's paid his mom back to replace a hairbrush he ruined cleaning his shoes B次元官网网址� Brownlee has also used the time on his round to deliver a message of kindness.

When the carrier first befriended an elderly ginger tomcat, he was initially concerned for the welfare of the skinny-looking feline.

In an attempt to help fatten him up, Brownlee brought food for his new friend, while also knocking on doors in the neighbourhood to track down its owner.

B次元官网网址淚t was really skinny so I felt bad for it,B次元官网网址� he said.

He soon knocked on the right door, meeting Tara Murley for the first time, who explained her 18-year-old cat Laker was coming to the end of his life.

B次元官网网址淚 explained to Cohen that LakerB次元官网网址檚 had a good life and that he was going to heaven on the weekend, because he is getting old and he's a little thin,B次元官网网址� said Murley.

The following week, days before Laker was due to be euthanized, Murley found a handwritten note and a flower on her doorstep.

B次元官网网址淚B次元官网网址檓 very sorry about your cat, he was a good cat, I really liked him,B次元官网网址� said the note from the caring carrier.

"I was so overwhelmed,B次元官网网址� said Murley about the moment she found the card. B次元官网网址淗eB次元官网网址檚 a very sweet boy. Very well spoken, obviously very sensitive and kind.B次元官网网址�

With a cat of his own, Brownlee says he was moved to make his kind gesture as he could empathize with how Murley must have been feeling at the time.

B次元官网网址淚 just felt bad for her because she's had him for so long and it would be probably really sad to lose him,B次元官网网址� he said.

But there was good news: days later Murley had a change of heart when she saw Laker chasing a butterfly, and realized there was life in the old cat yet.

B次元官网网址淲e just thought that he's not quite ready to go,B次元官网网址� said Murley.

Wanting to share the good news with her newfound friend, Murley left a note and a gift for Brownlee on her doorstep.

B次元官网网址淗e was jumping up and down when he opened it up,B次元官网网址� said Murley, who was watching from her window. B次元官网网址淭wo hands waving, he was just so happy.B次元官网网址�

B次元官网网址淚t made me feel happy to know that he was going to be okay and survive,B次元官网网址� said Brownlee.

The act of kindness has left a lasting impression on Murley, who canB次元官网网址檛 praise her newspaper carrier enough.

B次元官网网址淚 just feel lucky to get to know this little person B次元官网网址� the world has become a very hard place, so for this gentle heart to show kindness is just amazing," she said.

But for Brownlee, it was all in a day's work B次元官网网址� he thinks what he did was no big deal.

B次元官网网址淚t makes me happy to be kind to other people, because when theyB次元官网网址檙e happy, youB次元官网网址檙e happy,B次元官网网址� says Brownlee before braving a rainy November night to deliver the Goldstream B次元官网网址 Gazette.
