Purrfectly safe

DPW crew rescues feline family from shed


Northville Township provides for the safety of even the tiniest residents as proved by the recent rescue of an abandoned cat and her litter of tiny kittens. A DPW team cleaning out a storage shed on Beck Road heard soft mewing noises and expected to find a mouse in the debris—but instead found a litter of kittens with their watchful mother nearby. Team members personally supplied food, water and other necessities for the young township residents and are now working to have the kittens and mother examined by a local veterinarian. Crew members are hoping to find new, “loving homes”  for all the felines but for now, they are all safe and cared for, “thanks to the kindness of the township crew,” noted a spokesman in a Facebook post.
