When Methodist Church steward Mbuyiselo Manyonga set off to find the source of the muffled cries he heard while preparing for Sunday service, he thought there was a cat in distress.

The baby boy, found with his umbilical cord still attached, is in a stable condition at Indwe Hospital. His mother is not known.
