Anglers rescue swimming kittens

Two kittens hitched a ride on a boat with two anglers on the Warrior River in Alabama.

Jason Frost and Brandon Key of Alabama were fishing on the Warrior River when a cat came swimming up to them. Once Frost pulled him aboard, another kitty swam across to the boat, too. Frost assumed they had been dumped by a terrible cat parent. He and Key took the kittens back to the ramp where two little girls adopted them.

AL.com reported the story, and it has since gone viral, with Buzzfeed and Time among the major media companies sharing the video of the feline heroics. Read the full story here.
