In Westchester, New York, a little kitten took shelter from the cold, under a car hood. The car owners drove to Manhattan and parked until hours later - but the cat was somehow okay.
For those who live in cold weather, before you drive, please tap the hood and take a quick look under the car. It may save you and some chilly cat the same trouble.
From the article:
Winter is one of the most perilous times of the year for stray, feral and outdoor cats. With freezing temperatures, limited food sources and little shelter from the elements, many turn to unusual tactics to keep safe and warm. One such tactic is to hide under car hoods for warmth, and this week, we met a lucky kitten who did just thatand survived a 30 mile journey in the process.
