What a great way to start September! We have something absolutely amazing and so heart warming to kick off the month!
Jason Frost and Brandon Key, two fishermen from Alabama, were fishing at Warrior River and heard a small splash coming from the water a little ways away. Assuming it is a fish jumping out of the water they turn to see what was making all the noise, the men were understandably caught off guard when they see a small, orange, emaciated kitten swimming towards them! Thankfully the men decided to pull out their phones and record this heroic act of kindness.
In the video you can hear one of the men explain "Were out here on the Warrior River, and ya'll are not going to believe what's swimming towards our boat - a kitten!" Once the kitten reaches the boat Jason pulls the kitten from the river and is repaid with meows, purrs and down right adorable kitten love. In the background you can hear Brandon, who is recording the rescue say "I heard another splash," suggesting there is another kitten that needs help. Sure enough after a few seconds you can see another tiny, helpless kitten swimming to freedom. Once the second kitten is pulled into the boat you can obviously tell the two are siblings, and understandably filled with relief. At the end of the video you can see the two kittens rubbing against each other in victory that they had been rescued.
The men say that the kittens stayed and kept them company all day long, and once they got to land they dried off the little angels and gave them some water. Immediately after reaching the land a woman and her two young children became infatuated with the brave little kittens and immediately offered to adopt them. The men speculate that the kittens must of been purposely abandoned as there are no houses for miles.
The video has gone viral with over 1 million views, and it should, these men saved the kittens' lives! It is sad and unfortunate that the kittens were in the situation they were in, however, thanks to the brave little swimmers and two amazing fishermen, this story has a very happy ending!
