‘Rush hour morning traffic slowed and a kitten flew out of a car's engine compartment’: Cat pawrent heroically saves kitten during freeway rush hour, names him ‘Mr. Wiggles’ and appoints him as their home office manager

In many of the cat saving stories we feature here, the cat in question is discovered in a rather gradual way. Perhaps a meow is heard off in the distance, or the rescuer hears some rustling coming from a garbage can. But in this story, our feline in need of saving literally leapt out of a car. Getting the story off to a high speed, high energy pace that slowly settles down as the cat child settles into their new home with a family who was willing to risk their safety on a busy freeway to save the life of this lovely kitten.

But perhaps what is most surprising is that this cat child decided that it would not be enough to simply allow his rescuers to love him as repayment for their kind act. He decided that he needed to actually do something in return, and so became his new hooman's office manager. Ensuring that they make it to work on time while working from home, and even encouraging them to put in some extra hours on the weekend.
