• Workers Free Kittens From Shredder That Could Have 'Obliterated' Them in Dramatic Rescue Video (pulptastic.com) — A Bellmore animal rescuer played a key role after workers at an Oyster Bay maintenance yard heard cries from an industrial shredder and discovered three trapped newborn kittens. He rushed over, helped document the tense rescue, and ensured the kittens were placed with a bottle feeder until they're old enough for adoption, continuing his growing reputation for dramatic Long Island animal saves.
