KITTEN RESCUE - NEW YORK CITY SUBWAY CLOSES FOR TWO HOURS TWO PROTECT TWO FROLICKING KITTENS

People with good hearts in the big city turn off power and stop the trains to save two kittens playing on the tracks.  

It could have been cat-astrophic, but these runway kittens still have all nine lives in tact after train authorities came to their rescue today.  When two tiny felines were spotted frolicking on the train tracks near the Church Avenue station in Brooklyn about 11am, Metropolitan Transportation Authority workers turned off the power.  Passengers on the B and Q lines were stranded for about two hours while police officers chased the cats down the tracks.  According to the Wall Street Journal, a spokeswoman said police officers went onto the tracks to roust the cats so they wouldn't be at risk.  Service was restored once the kitties scurried off the tracks. However it's not clear what happened to the tiny cats.
