A modern-day Noah is on a mission to help a rare cat breed be fruitful and multiply. Brooklyn Rabbi Michael Salita – brother of former welterweight boxing champ Dmitry Salita – said he has three of the only documented Kanaani cats in the world, and considers it a “moral and spiritual obligation” to preserve the breed and its symbolism. “This is my boat – and I’m trying to save this breed,” he told The Post.
