A family who lives in Greencastle Indiana called 911 to report the sad news that a kitten they adopted fell into a storm drain on Wednesday. The Greencastle Fire Department crew answered the emergency call and they were able to rescue the kitten and reunite the kitten with her family the same day. Since the kitten did not have a name, the grateful family members named the kitten Sophia after the name of the ambulance that was on the scene. Firefighters are grateful to rescue a kitten that was trapped inside of a storm drain. Link is msn.com/en-us/news/us/...

That must have been terrifying for the family, especially with a newly adopted kitten. Those little ones can get themselves into the tightest and most unexpected places.

That is very true since cats are known for getting into trouble a lot.

That kitty is lucky to have been rescued. Cute name and extra special that she's named after the ambulance that rescued her, Guess she used up one of her 9 lives
