Kittens Found Dumped on Washington Freeway A pair of frightened and freezing kittens were found Jan. 5th 2004 at about midnight on Interstate 82 in rural Washington. Animal rescue volunteer, Brenda Anderson, was driving home from Christmas vacation with Dave Sizer when she noticed a mound of fur on the line between lanes in the highway. Little eyes reflected the headlights as the creature looked up. It was alive. After finding a turnaround and driving back several miles, the kitten was still there sitting on the center line. Miraculously it had not been run over by the dozens of semi-trucks or other vehicles that had passed just inches from it's head. The kitten didn't move. Anderson reached down to pick her up and found four little feet stuck to the center line. She scooped her up, place the stiff and frozen body into her jacket. Suddenly she heard a faint cry from the darkness. Walking, she followed the cry and called until another kitten bounded over the snow bank. Two kittens found in the middle of a ice and snow storm and miles from any house or building.

The kittens were named Centerline Brenda and Snowbank Dave after the Whisker City volunteers that saved them. Brenda has complications from severe frostbite and her tail has been removed along with the skin on both hind legs. She faces painful daily wound cleaning and future surgery. They are currently under the care of Dr. Baxter of Northgate Veterinary Clinic. Both kittens will be available for adoption when they are fully recovered.
