Two Guys Went Fishing But Ended Up Catching Abandoned Kittens

434

ADVERTISEMENT

When Jason Frost and Brandon Key went fishing on the Black Warrior river in Alabama, they had no idea what they might catch. They never imagined that it would turn into a “cat-fishing” trip, which is exactly what happened when they rescued two kittens that swam out from shore to seek safety on their boat.

“Y’all are not gonna believe what is swimming towards our boat. A kitten,” Frost says in his now-viral video of the kittens’ ordeal. Though wet and terrified, the kittens are good swimmers and they seem grateful for the rescue. In the video, Frost guesses that they were abandoned there by their previous owners.

After reaching dry land, Frost and Key met a family that fell in love with the kittens and adopted them.

    Nobody really knows that, it could have just been kittens born to a stray cat that either died or got separated from these two... probably stuck on that little isle when waters rose?

    The boat most likely had a motor, and that would not only scare the kitten coming towards them, but also the kitten on the boat with them.

    What do I think? I think this shows the dichotomy of the animal-human experience. A*****e dumps two lovely kittens. Two kittens save themselves by SWIMMING to a boat where they know a human is....humans, who cared for then dumped them. Trusting sweet kittens! These men are awesome!!!

    God works in mysterious ways you had to be at the right place at the right time for those little babies to get the guts to jump in that water and swim to you amazing. I hope you guys went over and check to make sure there wasn't one other one that was scared to get in the water that would really suck if there was some more

    Probably worried that the sound of the engine or the motion of the waves, even if the engine was off, would startle the kitty. Even if they had paddles, the motion of the water, could have causing him to panic and flail around dangerously. I think the way they handled it was best, especially since the 2nd kitten purrfectly followed the first kitten's trail!

    The boat likely had a very loud motor which might scare him.

    I see a lot of people calling these guys heroes, what y'all expect? That they were going to hold their heads down in the water or pick them up and eat them on the spot?... Of course the suspicious one in me believes these guys threw them in the water and started filming when they were swimming back, does their video on YT have ads???

    Hopefully they will extend their compassion and kindness to fish, too. Science has shown that they, too, feel fear and pain. They also deserve our protection and respect.

    They one who abandoned them to the river probably didn't realize they coudl swim. I'm so glad they found a new human to replace the dirt-bag.

    Thank God for good people who do the right thing even if its not convenient for them on their trip. I am so happy these sweet beautiful babies are safe and have a great forever home now. You gentlemen are truly wonderful heroes! I know my husband would have done the same thing to help them too!

    Someone dumped them or they'd be feral and not all loved and confident. I hate when people do such cruel things...

    What do I think? I think this shows the dichotomy of the animal-human experience. A*****e dumps two lovely kittens. Two kittens save themselves by SWIMMING to a boat where they know a human is....humans, who cared for then dumped them. Trusting sweet kittens! These men are awesome!!!

    God works in mysterious ways you had to be at the right place at the right time for those little babies to get the guts to jump in that water and swim to you amazing. I hope you guys went over and check to make sure there wasn't one other one that was scared to get in the water that would really suck if there was some more

    Did they fake this in order to have a video go viral? That's a long way. Why didn't they move the boat closer?

    Well, was there some good reason these guys couldn't row their boat over to the kittens, so they wouldn't have to swim so far, for goodness sake!

    Probably worried that the sound of the engine or the motion of the waves, even if the engine was off, would startle the kitty. Even if they had paddles, the motion of the water, could have causing him to panic and flail around dangerously. I think the way they handled it was best, especially since the 2nd kitten purrfectly followed the first kitten's trail!

    I have to wonder why they didn't go toward either kitten to help. Doesn't Alabama have alligators?

    its really cool they saved them but one thing bothers me. Why they waited for the second kitty to come instead going for him with boat ?

    The boat likely had a very loud motor which might scare him.

    What a*s would leave tiny kittens out there where they would end up killed by some animal most likely??

    I see a lot of people calling these guys heroes, what y'all expect? That they were going to hold their heads down in the water or pick them up and eat them on the spot?... Of course the suspicious one in me believes these guys threw them in the water and started filming when they were swimming back, does their video on YT have ads???

    Hopefully they will extend their compassion and kindness to fish, too. Science has shown that they, too, feel fear and pain. They also deserve our protection and respect.
