Notable:
A Purrfect Ending…
A woman entered her vehicle, which had been parked
overnight in her driveway, and attempted to start it one
morning. As she attempted to start it, she heard an
unusual noise and turned the engine off. An inspection
of the engine area revealed a full-grown cat was wedged
between the motor and other vehicle parts under the
hood. Only a portion of the cat’s face was visible. The
cat had most likely crawled under the vehicle and into the
engine area after it was recently parked and turned off.
Cold temperatures the previous night likely led the cat to
the still-warm engine area. The woman and several
neighbors tried unsuccessfully to remove the cat for quite
some time before calling 9-1-1 for assistance.
An officer arrived and observed the cat was fine, but was
stuck tight in the motor area. Tuna was used in order to
entice the cat out. The cat loved the tuna, but still could
not wiggle out. Another police officer arrived to assist
and the officers removed numerous parts from the
vehicle. Eventually, the officers were able to pull the cat
out from the engine area. As this occurred, a woman
was driving past the driveway and stopped upon
observing the cat. She stated she had been watching the
cat for a family member and the cat’s name was Spunky.
Spunky had gotten out of the house the night before and
she had looked for it all evening before giving up at
approximately 11:30 PM.
The officers assisted in bolting all of the vehicle’s pieces
back in place. As the officers left the area, both the cat
and the vehicle were purring like new.
