2 Kittens Found & Rescued

On the morning of June 19, 2013, the Central California SPCA received a call of a possible kitten in distress. The caller said that the kitten was stuck in a storm drain.  Upon arrival, Animal Control Officer Kristofer Shwetzer found a very scared and hungry gray and brown female kitten in a storm drain pipe six feet below the ground.  Unfortunately the kitten was too scared to come to the officer so he placed a safe trap in the storm drain with some cat food.   

The next day, Officer Shwetzer was flagged down by a concerned citizen in another area of town. They informed him of yet another kitten caught in a storm drain.  Fortunately, the officer was able to access this storm drain and rescue the gray and white male kitten.  The kitten was obviously very happy to be rescued as it purred loudly.

That same day, Officer Shwetzer checked the first trap and found the female kitten safely inside.  Both kittens were taken to the CCSPCA and treated for minor dehydration.  They now need a forever home.  They are both very friendly and love to play.  If you are interested in adopting these lucky little kittens, contact the CCSPCA at (559) 233-7722.  Even better, come down and see her for yourself at the CCSPCA located at 103 S Hughes Avenue in Fresno.  You can refer to Animal ID# SC89552 and # SC89553.
