Squee Alert: Alabama Fishermen Go Catfishing, End Up Rescuing Two Swimming Kittens

This wins the cutest video of the day award hands down.

“You are not going to believe what is swimming towards our boat,” said Jason Frost to the camera while on Warrior River in Alabama with his fishing bud Brandon Key.

Enter two kittens making a beeline for the boat a la the infamous Jimmy Carter rabbit.

“Never in my life,” said Brandon incredulously.

fishing. It looked like there was a pretty good chance that someone had dumped the kittens there and they were looking for a way out of there.

I loved how he kept looking to make sure there weren't any more kittens swimming towards them. A pox on whomever abandoned those babies, and kudos to those sweet men.
