A member of the public has narrowly avoided a complete cat-astrophe after hearing a funny noise coming from the engine of her vehicle.
The woman had been shopping at Sylvia Park when she returned to her car and began hearing concerning sounds from the engine on the drive home.
“The woman entered the motorway and could hear ‘meows’ from under the bonnet,” Auckland Motorways Manager, Senior Sergeant Scott Cunningham, says
“She pulled in behind a Motorway patrol car and explained to the officer what was happening.
“Upon closer inspection a kitten was found tucked under the bonnet.”
He says the officer placed the kitten into his lunch bag for safekeeping while he made a few calls.
“It didn’t take long and the little ball of fluff had found a new home with one of our emergency service call takers.
“It’s definitely a tail that will be retold around the water cooler.”
ENDS.
