The owner of the rescue said that she went to help after she heard kittens while getting out of her car.
“I got out of my car hearing kittens and thought I was just a crazy cat lady until I heard it again! Talk about right place at the right time!” the post read.
Three Costco employees were able to get two kittens out quickly, and they refused to give up on the third.
The owner said that with the help of her husband, they were able to get the third out while she straw-fed water to the other two.
“They’re now safe and sound here at our home being bottle fed after a TWO-hour drive to Costco this morning in an engine bay on one of the hottest days of the year. These babies are fighters,” the owner said in the post.
The kittens were named Britt, Tyler, and Matt after the three employees who recognized them.
