Teens operate on dead cat, saving kittens
Two teenagers performed a caesarean section on a dead cat they found along a New Brunswick road, saving two of four kittens.

Monica Castonguay, 15, and Kim Quimpère, 13, said they found the animal on July 31 while they were on their way for a walk in the woods near St. Quentin, a town in northwestern New Brunswick.

They told a French-language newspaper, the Acadie Nouvelle, that they recognized the cat and knew it was pregnant.

After discovering that the cat's body was still warm, they decided to try to save its kittens

3. Ok, what were two teenagers -really- doing going for a walk?
I don't buy it. I'm a teenager, I know I sure don't ... walk. ;)

Don't find yourself influenced by their crazy walking ways.

6. Awesome!
Young, French-speaking girls who save kittens? Truly, they are the anti-Frists!

8. Good thing Frist wasn't around.
Great kids. I went over to a friend's BBQ last night and the little cat they have was one we gave to them when he was 6 weeks old. Now he's like 3 months old and he remembered us. He sniffed and purred and made us, and our kid, very happy. I miss my kittens.
