    Adorable kittens, named Mitch and Marcus, 'brazenly' stolen from Florida animal shelter

    Two adorable underage kittens that were "catnipped" at a Florida Humane Society were returned safely after they were snatched from their cages.

    According to the Humane Society of Tampa Bay, two kittens — named Mitch and Marcus — were "brazenly stolen" from their cages in an "off-limits" area of the shelter on Thursday.

    The shelter said that Mitch and Marcus were placed in the kitten nursery since they were underage and vulnerable.

    The organization said that Sgt. Scott Savitt, supervisor of the District 1 Detective Squad, and Detective Jodie Maxim, along with another TPD officer, went out of their way after receiving tips from the community to retrieve the kittens.
