Kittens Rescued From Pipe In Molino

December 11, 2019

Several kittens rescued from a pipe in Molino Monday afternoon are doing well and have new homes in their future.

Following a minor traffic crash at the Tom Thumb on Highway 29 at Highway 97, first responders heard meowing coming from an overflow pipe for a retention pond.

Florida Highway Patrol trooper Aaron Acker and Molino Fire Department volunteer Drew Manning rescued the kittens from the pipe with a little help from Manning’s mom.

Manning took the kittens home and bathed them. We’re told they are now eating well and playing.

    These kittens are not dumped. There is a group of stray cats at this location and has been four several years. They are feed by people around this store. They have kittens often. And the cycle continues. The mother cats often abandon them probably because of lack of food. But thank you for the rescue. Most of the kittens don’t survive.
