8. Their tameness is probably due to their being born to someone's pet cats indoors. They were handled

A lot by people to be so trusting. Just feeding outdoor kitties wouldn't produce such sweeties. In rescue, you have to look for what turned out right. Their abandonment wasn't good, but the owner did put them near a vet and the total sealing..
Airless as it was...prevented them from escaping and being hit by a car, being attackef, or turning feral...although these guys would probably have sought a home for food! So glad things worked out and I hope the owners get the mamas FIXED!

A miracle they didn't suffocate, taped up in those boxes. What kind of savage would do something like that, leaving them all out in boxes by the garbage bins? Honestly, some people...

Well done to the rescuers. Pet shelter volunteers are the most devoted of angels.

Wish I had room for another ginger or two.
