LIBERTY LAKE - A Liberty Lake company received a surprise delivery Monday when three kittens were found in a crate carrying air-conditioning equipment.
The month-old kittens survived a four-day journey without their mother, traveling more than 2,000 miles between Nashville and Critical Power Exchange's Liberty Lake warehouse.
The company buys and sells large, industrial cooling units and generators, so employees weren't exactly prepared to enter the pet business.
"I had just unloaded one crate with a forklift when I saw the truck driver bend over and pick something up. Then he picked up two other things, and I realized they were kittens," said warehouse manager Jacob Gross.
It's astounding that the kittens even made it to Liberty Lake.
The three were wedged between a crumbling piece of cardboard and a cooling unit in one of the crates loaded onto a flatbed trailer.
"They were cruising down the highway," said Gross, who added that they had little protection from the elements.
"They were just meowing, meowing, meowing like crazy," he said.
The kittens were skinny, with their ribs showing, said Phyllis Gropp, who works in the company's front office.
Critical Power Exchange employees quickly went to work to help the babes, rushing out for kitten formula and other supplies and feeding them with a dropper bottle.
For the next four to six weeks the kittens will be cared for by Partners for Pets. Once they are old enough to spay or neuter they will be available for adoption.
Two are orange tabbies, while the third sibling is black.
They'll need careful owners.
These little kittens have already used up a few of their nine lives. Bio: So Nashville came all the way from Tennessee to Washington where he now resides with my hubby, Patches, and I!
