On November 27, 2013, Roto-Rooter received a call asking for help in rescuing a kitten who had fallen into a sewer pipe on a rainy, cold night on Long Island, New York. Not long after, Roto-Rooter was on the job. The rescuers first placed some sardines in the pipe to better nourish the kitten.

After four hours of hard work, the experts at Roto-Rooter were able to safely recover the kitten from the drain. Not long after, the kitten, named “Rooter” was adopted by a Roto-Rooter employee.

Special thanks to Guardian Rescue, and the local Roto-Rooter team: Jaime Santiesteban (and family for adopting this cute kitten), Mike Fisher, and Mike Katulis.

Roto-Rooter is available 24-hours a day, 7-days a week, 365 days a year for all your plumbing problems. Visit http://www.RotoRooter.com to schedule a visit.

#Caturday, 1/24/2015: Employees at this Tokyo office have 9 cat coworkers

Rocket News has the story:

9 cats at Ferray Corporation in Japan

When you live in a cramped city like Tokyo, owning a pet is a luxury many people cannot afford. Apartments usually come with strict no-pets policies, and the only way Tokyo dwellers have been able to get their pet-fix is by visiting cat cafes. Sure, it’s nice to sip on a delicious drink while petting a purring kitty, but you can’t stay there forever. What are you supposed to do during those other, horrible cat-less hours of the day?

One company in Japan has come up with a solution. They’re bringing the soothing cat cafe experience to the office by filling their workplace with adorable cats.

The cat-populated workplace is the brainchild of Ferray Corporation, an internet solutions business which mainly deals with webpage construction, application development, and other IT work. The company own nine loveable rescue cats that are allowed to roam the office on a daily basis, sleeping, causing adorable trouble as cats will, and just generally being cute little balls of stress-relief.
