Beloved cat freed by firefighters in two-hour rescue mission after getting wedged between two walls
An unlucky cat was freed by firefighters in a two-hour rescue mission after getting wedged between a wall and garage.
Michelle Bateman became worried when her pet cat Sox didn't return home after being let out last Thursday evening.
When there was still no sign of the black and white moggy the next morning, 52-year-old Michelle reviewed CCTV footage to try and find clues to where he might be.
She heard a faint cry after looking around the neighbourhood in Gornal where she lives with her partner Darren Poole, 47, and their four cats.
And Michelle eventually found Sox wedged in a gap between an exterior wall and the wall of a garage.
She quickly called the emergency services and three fire crews were sent to the scene.
It then took two hours to free 13-year-old Sox before he was taken to the vets for treatment.
Michelle, who adopted Sox when he was one-year-old, said: "We think he ran into the narrow gap between the two walls, possibly chasing something.
