Firefighters rescued kitten from different pieces of furniture twice in a week

A curious kitten has been keeping members of the Torrington Fire Department in Connecticut busy.



Firefighters helped the kitten that got its head stuck inside a piece of furniture last Sunday night when a woman from Harwinton took the 9-week-old kitten to the station for help.

For Capt. Kevin Engle and other firefighters at the station, the situation brought on a sense of deja-vu. Owner Heather Robillard had taken the same kitten to the station the previous Tuesday after the cat got its head stuck in a separate piece of furniture in her home. “He must just like playing in furniture,” said Engle.



Engle says members of the department were able to safely cut the cat out within 10 minutes. Engle said the kitten is part of a litter Robillard’s cat recently gave birth to. He also said a member of the department is considering adopting the kitten once he is old enough to be adopted.
