Awww...so cute! I'm glad they got them off the tracks, but they gave them to a shelter--that's as good as a death sentence if it was a NYC shelter. All they do is kill animals. Only about 20% ever make it out alive.

It only matters that bleedinhearts feel good about themselves.

I worked at a railroad with a guy who was the most wretched alcholic and had nothing but contempt for most human beings... The guy was indescribable... every other word out of his mouth was the F word... he was quite the character, actually.

However, when it came to animals, particularly cats... he was a complete softie. He would take in strays... and I believe at one point he had 9 at home and about 15 at the railyard.

He always figured that when his time came he’d have “an angle”, “Yeah, I’ll be up there at the pearly gates and when he gives me any lip I’ll say, ‘Yeah? Well look here, [Saint] Pete[r], you talk to the Big Man and he will tell you to let me in... because I took care of all His cats down on that shithole planet below!’”.

I am not sure where he is now... but I could easily see him on the scene trying to wrangle these kitties.

This could be a dry run for something bigger.

Moggies are lucky the *other* denizens of the MTA tunnels didn't get to them first.

The kittens were “alluding” them. Rotten writing, happy ending.

Good rescue job folks!

Just heard this story on the radio. Those sweet kittens will be adopted. It’s the other animals that need homes too.

Kittens should get a medal for being on the subway, lets face it, peeps should get medals too for riding. The subway too.

The two officers kept running up and down the third rail but the kitties kept alluding them, running back and forth.

(Officer tries to grab a kitten)
Kitten 1: "I think he's gay."
Kitten 2: "All the signs are there."

(Officer tries to grab the other kitten)
Kitten 1: "Only an alcoholic would have missed me."
Kitten 2: (makes drinking motion) "Glug glug glug glug..."

(Officer tries to grab one of the kittens again)
Kitten 1: "Damned momma's boy."
Kitten 2: "Still living in her basement, brah?"

One of these days they may actually teach English in schools. I hold on to hope, eternal.

The Rat-Hunting Dogs of New York City

Volunteers with Terriers hunt the alleyways of lower Manhattan for ratz.
