HENDERSON, Nev. – Fire crews in Henderson, Nevada, on Wednesday helped a kitten who was stuck in a wall.
Two women called the first department after hearing a noise, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported. They were located near College Drive and Boulder Highway. They said that the kitten was stuck in the wall and seemed to be suffocating.
Around 3:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Henderson Fire Department went out to the area to assist.
When they arrived, they put a camera that was reportedly dropped into the crack in the wall to find the noise, the Review-Journal reported. A hole was made in the wall to get the kitten out.
