A customer who was at a drive-in at a coffee shop in Ames Iowa heard a kitten's meow when the customer whose name and gender were not released to the public requested that someone come to rescue the kitten who is female.
Workers with the Ames Animal Shelter and a tow truck driver worked together to dismantle the front of the car to remove the kitten out of the auto in about 15 minutes later.
The kitten who now goes by the name Dolly after the dollies of the tow truck was adopted by the tow truck driver.
The kitten only suffered an injury to her paw due to her time inside of an auto. Nice work by the workers of the animal shelter and the two truck driver to rescue the kitten.

She's a lucky cat. Years ago a coworker was late to work because a cat got caught up in the grill by the radiator of her car.

That is true since my relative and myself have to look out for stray cats that tend to get underneath parked autos in the driveway.
