Subway service disrupted to rescue kittens

Not long ago, this never would have happened


Slowly, slowly, U.S. society in general is accepting that if it is in our power to save a life, we should do so, even if it's not a human life. That doesn't necessarily mean society gives a cat's life equal weight as a human life. It does mean, that a feline life may be worth more than getting people to work, or home, on time.

Not so long ago, no one ever would have suggested stopping subway service for a couple of street kittens.
