Children walking home from school one day last week heard the kittens crying. A humane society volunteer living on the island had the kittens flown to Ketchikan.
Abandoned doesn’t sound like anybody owned them
Cute story.When one of my Tom cats sired a litter he cleaned and slept with his kittens whenever the mother got out of the box to eat or use the litter box. He is still like that with his brother and son.I named him Sugar Bear as a result Very sweet kitty.: 0)
These kittens lived not more than a day in "feral" conditions, and would not have survived long. A person, and most likely a house, was involved here.
"Abandoned" precisely means that somebody owned them, and didn't want to own them any more.
“Muench, a volunteer with the Ketchikan Humane Society, is caring for the kittens at home after someone put them into a cardboard box and left them on a road between Klawock and Craig on Prince of Wales Island.”
It was easy to miss. ;-)
