These five tiny kittens were given a second chance at life when they were found shivering sitting in a garbage can by a sanitation worker.
"Our new arrivals, the Sesame Street kittens, spent two days piled on top of each other in the bottom of this trash can," Tiny Kittens wrote.
"We are so grateful to our very own Handyman, of Anders & Co., who was on duty collecting trash, heard their little mews and knew exactly what to do."
He rushed the kittens to TinyKittens, a rescue group in Langley, British Columbia where they gave them baths and immediately treated them for fleas.
The fur babies also got their first round of deworming, ears cleaned and the medical attention they needed.
They were very frightened at first, but when they experienced cuddles and love, everything changed.
The kittens were given baths and treated for worms and fleas.
All cleaned up!
Time for a nap!
They were fostered by TinyKittens Society of Langley, BC.
