On Monday night, Aug. 13, at approximately 11 p.m. the Seymour Fire Department was dispatched to Willow Street for an animal rescue. Upon arrival, crews found a tiny kitten stuck in the engine compartment of a parked vehicle.
The kitten was removed,
uninjured, in about 10 minutes by fire department personnel with the expertise
of Assistant Chief Edwards, who was able to remove the vehicle's air filter
box. The cat, although scared, appeared to
be in good health, according to Assistant Fire Marshal Tim Willis.
Assistant Chief
Edwards then took the kitten to VCA animal shelter in for a full checkup and a
bath. Willis said the department is unsure of the kitten's owner.
In all about 15 firefighters
responded to the incident.
