#stray kitten
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.

Curiosity nearly killed this tiny cat after getting caught in a mousetrap
As an orphan in the wild, life was always going to be a big challenge for a kitten. Starving and too young to be left to fend for herself, life was always tough for this little five-week-old kitten. It is easy to see why a frail kitten like Babybell would resort to pawing at a cheese-loaded mousetrap.
The tiny black-and-white stray sniffed out the cheese and her curiosity almost killed her.
