2 separate kitten incidents prompt warning for drivers to check under the hood
"The kitten, who has since been named Sparky, was uninjured and safely tucked in a cardboard box by the finders before the ARL arrived at the scene. ARL workers transported Sparky to the organization's Dedham Animal Care & Adoption Center for a medical evaluation. She weighed only 1.4 pounds and was deemed to be in good health. ARL officials said the cat will remain in foster care until she is at least eight weeks old, reaches a healthy weight, and has been spayed."
"A 5-month-old male kitten, named Pisces, was found in a car engine in Brockton. Pisces was also transported to ARL's Dedham Animal Care & Adoption Center for a medical evaluation. While there, vets discovered that the cat had suffered a burn on his right hind leg, singed whiskers, and a healed wound on his left shoulder. Pisces is undergoing treatment and will be neutered before he is ready for adoption."
