2008_12_jeffbri.jpgA year ago, we wrote about a little orange and white kitten who was found on the Queensboro Bridge. He was rescued (in a paint can, thanks to construction workers) and eventually adopted into a loving home. Now we hear that he's "very, very cuddly and loves to play"—and he's much bigger now, but still cute and freckly (pictured). If you're thinking about adding a furry friend to your household soon, head to the Empty Cages Collective adoption event in Park Slope tomorrow—there will be kittehs of all sizes.
