One day at work, a trash collector had a heart-warming encounter when he opened a trash bag.

A usual day for this employee at Philadelphia, PA is hauling trash bags deposited in the streets into the garbage truck. The routine was the same for this particular day. Nothing uneventful happened, until he noticed that there were movements in one of the bags. After he heard sound coming from it, he realized it was coming from a cat that was still inside the bag.

The collector released the kitten as soon as he could. She was then taken to the Providence Animal Shelter, and was aptly named after the Sesame Street character Grundgetta.

The animal shelter that took her confirmed that Grundgetta had been adopted by a loving new family.

It is truly inhumane to throw away such an innocent kitten away. Stories like this, however, provide hope for humans who are still compassionate and kind to animals.
