Four stray kittens were discovered hungry and covered in fleas in the Great Meadow Correctional Facility in upstate New York.
The staff then came together to buy food, and inmates created a kitty condo in the facility’s carpentry shop.
On weekends, the convicts pitch in to help care for the kittens.
According to VetStreet.com, the kittens have each been given names associated with the prison: Doc (an abbreviation for the Department of Correctional Services), Comstock (for prison’s location), Annie (for Fort Ann) and Meadow (for Great Meadow).
