Abbotsford police say they have recovered five young kittens stolen from a home in Abbotsford, B.C.
The kittens were stolen after a suspect entered a home in the 32900-block of Bevan Avenue through an unlocked door around 3 a.m. Tuesday, police said.
Because they were just 10 days old, police said the kittens were at risk after being separated from their mother, Mittens.

In addition to the kittens, passports and an Apple TV were stolen.
