Firefighters in Orange County showed “some ingenuity” to rescue a trapped kitten recently, using a box, a can of tuna, and the “meow” sounds of a YouTube video to do so.

The Orange County Fire Authority said station 70 arrived at the scene on Sunday, April 28, to find a number of people who had “tried multiple ways” to rescue the kitten from the drain it was in, “but without success.”

With a “can-do” attitude, the fire crew got the job done, the authority joked, adding that the kitten had already “found a foster home”. Credit: Orange County Fire Authority via Storyful
