"He noticed something was moving inside one of the bags. He opened the bag and found the kitten," Justina Calgiano of Providence Animal Center told Love Meow.

Mark quickly contacted the Providence Animal Center (Media, Pennsylvania) and they took her in and brought her to get vetted.  They named the kitten "Grundgetta" after Oscar the Grouch's girlfriend.  

"She was sweet and innocent and didn't deserve to be treated that way. I'm glad she's healthy and safe," Mark said.

The kitten is doing great! She's full of love and is getting plenty of attention.

"We're looking to transfer her into a foster home with experience edealing with 'bottle babies' and then in 4-5 weeks when she's old enough, big enough and healthy enough, we'll place her up for adoption."

Mark plans to visit the kitten when she is ready to be put up for adoption. He is so happy to know that the kitten is in good hands and loved!  

"I was just doing what was right and making sure the cat got safe and the help (she) needs," he said.
