Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) firefighters have pulled off the 'purr-fect' rescue effort, extricating a cantankerous kitten from the dashboard of a car at Blackett, in Sydney's west.
The kitten was being driven home for the first time by its new owner, along Devaney Street, just before midday yesterday, when the frightened feline made a run for it, scampering behind the dashboard where it got stuck.
Ropes Crossing Fire Station
A distress call went out to the crew from the Ropes Crossing Fire Station, which was quickly on scene. Assisted by a Technical Rescue crew from Blacktown, the firefighters carefully took apart the dash of the Holden sedan to free the uninjured, ginger kitty during a two-hour operation.
Now named 'Dashi' by its owner as a result of its ordeal, it's again proved no mission is 'im-paws-ible' for Fire and Rescue NSW.
