He rescues kitties:
“McConaughey started the just keep livin foundation, which is “dedicated to helping teenage kids lead active lives and make healthy choices to become great men and women”.[38] He also rescued various pets stranded after the flooding of New Orleans from Hurricane Katrina.[39] In 2006, he rescued a cat from two youths in Sherman Oaks, California; the youths had doused the cat in hairspray and were attempting to set it on fire.”
