Freezing Kitty Saved From Storm Drain

2009_10_kittenres.jpg Aww: A passerby heard a kitten mewling from a storm drain in Oceanside, NY, so firefighters worked to rescue the tiny thing from the cold, freezing weather. According to the AP, "The firefighters tried to coax the kitten out of the grate but it was too scared to move. Then they scared it with a fire extinguisher and it jumped out." The kitten was taken Hilton Animal Hospital and "put in a warming cage"—it will be up for adoption when it's deemed healthy.
