#love kittens
Rob Howard is a service tech at Knight Automotive in Plattsburgh. A regular customer brought in her GMC Sierra pickup truck to be serviced, but this was not normal engine trouble. Howard popped the hood of the truck and found a cat sitting in the car’s engine.
“It was kind of a little bit scared so it was meowing and hissing at me. At that point it jumped down to the skid shield underneath the fan,” Howard said.
Howard immediately tried rescuing the scared kitten.

When a stray kitten was first spotted by Sarah Olds, just outside her Hillsdale workplace, she thought the small kitten was already dead.
“But then he just looked up at us,” Olds said of the kitten she and a co-worker found frozen to a sewage drain Wednesday, Nov. 19.
Olds and co-worker Thomas Arnold, who both work at AT&T, poured a bucket of warm water over the kitten’s stuck paw to loosen him.
“When we found him he hissed at Thomas, but when I bent to pet him he started to purr,” said Olds, who named the cat Elsa after the character in “Frozen.” “When I wrapped him up and took him inside, he was so cold he was barely moving.”
After work, Olds took the kitten to Kibby Animal Hospital in Jackson for a checkup. Lukily, the male kitten didn’t have any major issues, just fleas and and inflammation on the leg that had been frozen to the ground, Olds said.
“These people did a great thing, they could have kept walking and ignored it,” said Dr. Mlissa Owings, a veterinarian at Kibby Animal Hospital.
Sarah didn’t just saved the male kitten’s life but she also made him the new addition to her family.
The family, which includes Sarah Old’s son Carter, 6, her boyfriend Michael Walters and two large husky St. Bernard mixes, are welcomed the kitten into their Michigan Center home.
Old said she didn’t find out the kitten was a male until after she named him Elsa, and plans to keep the name.
I think his girl name is weird, but I like it,” said Carter.

Human dad’s unconditional love to his rescued orphan kitten
Meet Walker the rescue cat. When he’s just a tiny ball of fluff, around 4 weeks old, he was already left to fend for himself in the streets. It’s unknown where he came from, but luckily a kind woman saw him sheltering under a car in downtown LA.
He had no mom or any siblings with him, covered in dirt and ridden with fleas. He was too young and had a little chance of survival.
He was taken in by the kind woman and nursed him back to health. She was also able to find little Walker a human dad who will love and spoil him. His human dad continued to bottle fed him and with the help of his friends with experience in saving stray cats and a great vet, his fur baby pulled through.

Unparalleled friendship between kitten and Miss little artist with autism is precious
Looking at little Iris Halmshaw’s photographs, you wouldn’t think that she was any different than any other 4-year-old little girl. And yet, she is. Iris is on the autism spectrum. The four-year-old girl rarely speaks and has great trouble with interacting with others, but expresses herself through movement and art.
Iris loves to paint and spend time with her best friend, Thula. Thula joins in with every activity, helping keep Iris interested and engaged. Iris’ mom, Arabella, describes Thula as a constant source of amusement and joy even on a grey day.
