Kittens Rescued On San Mateo Bridge Available For Adoption: PHS

BURLINGAME, CA – Two kittens who were found abandoned in a box on the San Mateo Bridge earlier this year are now available for adoption, the Peninsula Humane Society said Tuesday.

Lucy, a black and white female and Liam, a brown tabby male, were found April 27 by a woman who was driving home from work and spotted the box on the west bound side of the San Mateo Bridge, PHS Communications Manager Buffy Martin Tarbox said.

“She then noticed a little head pop up from the box and she pulled over,” Tarbox said.

“Inside the box were two tiny little kittens. The woman scooped them up and brought the kittens directly to us.”

Both kittens have been spayed and neutered, microchipped and vaccinated. The adoption fee for each kitten is $120.

“They are now about two and half months old and ready to be adopted into new loving homes,” Tarbox said.

In an effort to help control the spread of COVID-19, the PHS is open for adoptions by appointment only. Those interested in meeting Lucy or Liam need to call (650) 340-7022 to schedule an appointment.
