Animal Happy Ending: Cat Rescued from Installation Shaft in Vienna

The animal was untraceable all Saturday, but was then heard by the owner behind the wall. The man alerted the Vienna professional fire brigade at 3:30 PM, which according to a press release "set out with a vehicle for cat rescue" - ultimately successfully.

The emergency services found a small hole in the lower part of the wall where the toilet's flush tank is mounted, through which the animal must have slipped. The flush tank was dismantled by the firefighters and the hole in the wall was enlarged, reported press spokesman Christian Feiler.

The cat was stuck between pipes and another wall. The pipes had to be carefully pushed away from the wall with a hydraulic spreader to free the trapped cat. Subsequently, it could be returned to its owner.
