Kicker - A suspicious bag of cuteness

MARY REICHARD, HOST: The sheriff’s department in Butler County, Ohio received a call last week about a suspicious package found outside of a church. 

A short time later, the bomb squad arrived, inspected the zippered bag, and heard no ticking, but they did hear something coming from inside purring. 

Inside was a momma cat named Sprinkles and her six newborn kittens. An attached note explained that whoever had left the bag couldn’t care for them.

So the local animal shelter did and they say mom and the kittens are healthy and a lot happier now that they’ve found a foster family. 

All’s well that end’s well.

It’s The World and Everything in It.
