Terrified Woman Hears Cries Coming From A Box Sealed Shut With Duct Tape

What would you do if you were walking past a bus stop and heard cries for help coming from inside a box that was all taped up?

A woman actually found herself in this situation, and she quickly decided that the cats inside deserved better and opened the box.

Inside the three small kittens were very excited that someone had opened the box.

The box had been sealed with duct tape and there was no way those kittens would have survived.

Not only that, the box had been left at a bus stop on a very hot day.

The kittens were overheated and rather scared.

The kind woman quickly took the kittens to the Mayhew Animal Home located in London.

Then, at the vet clinic, the kittens were examined and found to be in good health and the staffers estimated their age to be about 11 weeks.
