A kitten who was thrown from a moving car on the Verrazano Bridge has found a new home.
Animal Care and Control says actress and television host Whoopie Goldberg has adopted the feline who was rescued from the bridge last month.
Caregivers had named the cat "Verrazano," but we're told Goldberg has shortened the kitten's name to "Vinny."
Animal Care and Control says Goldberg was one of more than 140 people to submit an adoption application for the kitten.
They're also reminding New Yorkers that there are plenty of other animals in city shelters that need loving families.
