This gives Pussy Riot new meaning.
A man discovered a lonely kitten on the side of the road — only to have a pack of tiny cats emerge from the brush.
In a now-viral clip, the lone baby feline meows at the man where the grass meets gravel — but in the next minute, Louisiana’s Robert Brantley is ambushed by a stampede of meowing kittens.
“Oh, my gosh!” he exclaims in the video, which shows a seemingly never-ending kitten rampage. “I can’t take ya’ll. Oh, my gosh.”
One by one, the little kitties sprang from the tall grass that towered over their small bodies, running in circles around his feet.
“There’s more — we got a kitten problem,” Brantley says in the video, clearly shocked. “I thought I was saving one. Hot diggity dog.”
The 37-year-old Brantley was driving along and just happened to see what he thought was a kitten on the side of the road. After he continued on, he let the thought of the cat “marinate,” eventually deciding to turn around and rescue it before the rest of the pack suddenly surprised him.
“They’re all here at the house; they’re all doing good,” he told The Post of all 13 kittens he discovered. “The first time I fed them, they fought like they had never eaten a bite of food before.”
He speculated that someone probably had these kittens in their house and threw them out since he couldn’t find their mama.
While he can’t keep the entire baker’s dozen, he plans to keep at least two or three for his family, including one kitten on which his 1-year-old son fixated.
“They’re obsessed with each other,” he said. As far as the rest, gracious neighbors have offered to adopt them.

My eyes aren’t tearing up, I bit into a pepper, I swear.
That was fun. Thanks.
It’s a kitty stampede!
Lol! Thank you
Old collective name, a kindle of kittens. : )
Thank you, what a surprise, so many!
Smoke gets in your eyes.
Yes, thanks. Something good for a change :)
Touching. God gave the courage to that one little kitten to come forth ultimately enabling all 13 to survive.😥
Now that is just too funny. They couldn’t have been out there long enough to be feral, they were just too interested in this guy!
That’s way cool.
Gotta save it to show my son. He loves cats.
How sweet. Thank you for sharing!
feel good story of the year [esp. if you love kitties] ...
“Now that is just too funny. They couldn’t have been out there long enough to be feral, they were just too interested in this guy!”
indeed ... someone must just have dumped them ...
Set up.
Nice story but those cats all know him. He has fed them before.
Still cute.
LOL! ‘NO good deed goes unpunished’.
(That was a very fecund mama cat!)
How do you know? Maybe the one who ventured out first was the ‘herd boss’ :-)
Nice story
