Thoughts for Thursday – Kittens in a Pouch

Have you heard of a Kitten Bjorn? It’s a vest you can wear with a pouch for kittens similar to the baby packs moms and dads wear when out and about with their infants. The kittens can hang out in a large mesh pocket with their siblings and see, hear, and feel the presence of a human all the while.

A volunteer at the Animal Rescue League of Boston came up with this idea a few years ago as a hands-free method of socializing kittens for adoption and they’ve found it to be extremely successful.

I’ve seen people carry cats in slings over their shoulder, backpacks, front packs, and push them in strollers, but this is a first for me and I’m fascinated. I thought you would be too. Check it out here:
