Mechanics at Elite Garages in Maidstone sprang into action to rescue a tiny kitten who found herself trapped inside the garage’s MOT brake tester.
The team heard faint meows while conducting a routine MOT and traced the sound to the gap between the metal rollers of the testing machine. After careful manoeuvring, they managed to free the unharmed kitten.
The heartwarming rescue was captured on video and quickly gained traction on social media, racking up over 100,000 views and nearly 10,000 likes. Online commenters even suggested creative names for the little adventurer, with Diesel, Sparky, and Turbo topping the list.
The rescued kitten received a veterinary check-up and found a loving forever home after the vet who examined her was completely smitten.
Elite Garages commented: “The kitten has not only been checked and vaccinated, but also stolen everyone’s hearts. Now safe and sound, Maidstone’s Elite Garages isn’t just known for fixing cars anymore, they’re known for rescuing cats too!”
