Frankenmuth Cat Rescue: Seven Kittens Found Abandoned in a Plastic Tote

Frankenmuth Cat Rescue: Seven Kittens Found Abandoned in Plastic Tote A heartwarming yet heartbreaking story unfolded in Frankenmuth, Michigan, on Monday, May 12th. A local non-profit cat rescue, Pet Angel Adoption, discovered seven kittens and their mother abandoned in a plastic tote with no air holes. "Yesterday, 6 kittens were left inside a plastic tote with no air holes in it," said Abby, the director of Pet Angel Adoption, in a video posted to TikTok. "Next to the tote, inside a teeny tiny cage, was their mother." The video quickly gained traction, highlighting the urgent need for donations to cover the unexpected veterinary costs. The kittens, all boys, were named after Sesame Street characters: Bert, Ernie, Elmo, Grover, and Snufy. The mother cat is named Sesame. The incident underscores the problem of animal abandonment and the vital role of community-based rescues in providing care for vulnerable animals. Despite the difficult circumstances, the video ends on a hopeful note, with the kittens receiving care and the community rallying to support their recovery. "These seven lives are precious, and we need to be able to give them the help that they need," Abby said. The rescue is actively seeking donations via a link in their bio.
