Tiger the cat is brought back to life in incredible scenes due to air next week as part of Channel 4’s new series The Supervet.

The ginger tabby is recovering from a major operation when he goes into cardiac arrest.

Fortunately ‘supervet’ Noel Fitzpatrick is on hand and, after other attempts to resuscitate him fail, his only option is to cut a hole in his chest and re-start Tiger’s heart with his finger.

And Tiger is just the first of the show’s success stories.


Other pets from across the country to receive cutting-edge care from the ‘bionic vet’ include a cat with two artificial feet and Bacus the French Bulldog, who struggles to walk after recovering from a leg fracture.



The Supervet kicks off on Wednesday at 8pm on Channel 4.
