BEAUFORT, S.C. (WTOC) -Firefighters saving kittens caught in bushes, it’s a cliche you’ll have seen earlier than. Thursday evening in Beaufort, town’s firefighters and public works division rescued a kitten in a barely completely different approach.
Instead of being caught in a tree, the kitten was twelve toes under floor in an influence pole.
There have been a couple of completely different strategies that have been tried to get that kitten out of this pole, the one which ended up working concerned utilizing two telephones that have been facetiming one another. One of them was lowered into the pole as a kind of distant digital camera to assist discover that kitten.
It took a while earlier than the facetime system was thought up, the individuals who first heard the kitten tried to hold a rug within the gap for the kitten to climb on to… however have been unsuccessful. That’s after they walked over to the close by fireplace division.
The complete rescue took round three hours. Once the facetime system was created, rescuers from the City of Beaufort – Town of Port Royal Fire Department and Beaufort’s Public Works Department then used a internet and that facetime system to grab the kitten up.
Firefighters with the division informed me that they get animal rescue calls about as soon as a month. They’re joyful that this was one other success story.
“Our crews did a great job, Battalion 1, Engine 1 and public works. They made it happen, and they weren’t going to leave the scene until they got that kitten up.

Deputy Chief Vezin informed me the kitten bolted away as quickly because it acquired again to the floor. A neighborhood volunteer introduced some cat meals and a lure to the division so it may well hopefully be delivered to a veterinarian.
