RachelMolnar,communications co-chair of theRegina Cat Rescue, said the organization decided to have a little fun because the election is on everyone's mind. The "little party leaders" and their mom were discovered on the streets of Regina.

There were three malesand one female kitten. The names for the male party leaderswere randomly given to the felines.

"We're just disappointedthere wasn't one more male for Gilles Duceppe," Molnar said.

"Justin, Tom, Stephen and Elizabeth love to challenge each other and can often be found sparring over important issues like use of the scratching post, access to the food dish and whose turn it is to snuggle with their foster mom," a post on the Regina Cat Rescue's website read.
