… and to their delight, the escape attemptactually worked!

“That cage doesn’t close as well as our other cages and we usually have a clip on the door so it can’t be opened,” Klitzke said. “One of the staff members must have forgotten to clip the door shut.” 

Immediately, the kittens climbed out of their crate and began running along the top of it, and as they frolicked, the security cameras picked up on the movement and alerted the staff that something was amiss. 

“We had a staff member coming in to clean cages around 8:30 in the morning so we left the kittens loose until the staff member got there,” Klitzke said. “They made it to the top of our cages but it is a long way down to the floor. So they spent their time running across the top of the cages, which was about 10 feet long. They were loose about an hour and a half.” 

Watching the footage from the security cameras, the staff members couldn’t help but smile at how much fun the kittens were having. They looked so excited that they had somehow managed to pull off the grand escape. 

Of course, the fun had to come to an end eventually, and before long the kittens were back in their crate together, likely exhausted from their impromptu adventure. The four brothers definitely have a lot of energy — and hopefully soon, they’ll be able to use that energy to run around and play in their new forever homes.
