Our feline friends can often sneak into the most unexpected places with no idea how to get out.
Just like that, not one, but 16 cats surprised this contractor from Philadelphia who was working on an abandoned house. Want to know how? Well, let’s find out together!
What seemed like a typical Sunday, this contractor’s routine workday, turned into an extraordinary rescue operation.
While working, he started hearing faint cat cries coming from the wall. Initially, he thought he was just hearing the cats outside. But as the cries grew louder, it became clear that there was a cat trapped inside the wall.
Upon informing the homeowners about the situation, they opened the wall and were instantly left speechless – Instead of finding a lone trapped cat, they discovered nine adult cats and seven kittens.
No one knows how the cats and kittens ended up stuck in the wall, but the important thing is that the contractor found them.
Though it took him eight long hours to rescue the cats and kittens, he managed to get all of them to safety.
After rescuing 16 cats, the contractor reached out to The Animal Care & Control Team of Philadelphia, who responded right away.
Many of the rescued cats and kittens were in a dire state, emphasizing the contractor’s lifesaving intervention.
Tragically, despite all the effort, one kitten passed away shortly after the rescue. The rest of the cats and kittens were taken to the shelter, where they received professional help and a chance to have a good rest.
The rescue team is hopeful for the future of these cats, aiming to socialize them and find them loving forever homes.
