Cat, Kittens Found Alive In WTC Rubble
Vet: All Eating Well, Should Recover

The World Trade Center recovery effort has brought plenty of sadness, and
some extraordinary tales of survival, including one of a very resourceful
cat.
Beneath the rubble, in a forgotten basement of what was once a restaurant,
rescuers found the blast survivor, curled up in a carton of napkins.
The owner of the restaurant made the discovery about two weeks after the
disaster. He immediately called rescuers.
Dr. John Charros said that the cat had given birth to three beautiful
kittens.
"Mom was very emaciated, very thin and dehydrated. She's suffering from the
flu. She's still getting over that now, and had a little secondary bacterial
infection. The babies were in pretty good shape; they had been feeding well.
I think mama weighed in at five pounds when she was first brought in. She
should probably weigh somewhere between eight and 10 pounds," Charros said.
Doctors immediately hospitalized the animals and predict a full recovery.
Mom has been christened "Hope." The babies are being called "Freedom,"
"Amber" and "Flag."
Shelter operators at Brooklyn's Center for Animal Care and Control said that
they've found homes for the cat and kittens. They should be able to leave
the hospital in November.



Has there been any follow=up on how the Mom and kittens are doing?

I don't know I contacted the news channel but you know how long before
they will get back.

They should be healthy furballs right now the report said all were going
to the same home
