Anyone who has ever raised a cat knows that one of cats’ biggest hobbies is drilling holes. No matter how big or small the hole is, as long as it sees an open entrance, it can’t help but get in. For example, if you place an empty box on the ground, no matter how small the space in the box is, it cannot resist the enthusiasm of cats. They will try their best to squeeze themselves into this small space.

Why do cats like to get into small spaces so much? It is said that a long time ago, the ancestors of cats liked to make their homes in tree holes or stone crevices. Because their bodies are soft and flexible, they can easily get into caves. In addition, small caves can prevent the intrusion of other wild animals, making cats feel safe. Over time, cats have left the gene that likes drilling holes in their blood.

However, cats’ habit of drilling holes sometimes brings danger to them.

Netizen Ziyan’s family has a blue cat named Yuanyuan. Because she was worried that a cat would be too lonely, Ziyan recently adopted another garden cat, named Quanquan. This little black cat is lively and active, and seems to be full of curiosity about everything. Since arriving at its new home, it has begun endless exploration.

In the evening, Ziyan was sitting on the sofa watching TV, Yuanyuan was sleeping on the sofa, and Quanquan went to play somewhere. Not long after, a circle of painful screams suddenly came from the toilet. Ziyan heard the sound and hurried over but didn't see the kitten. If you listen carefully, the cat's meow seems to be coming from the toilet!

Is the ring in the toilet? How did it get in? Ziyan looked around the toilet and found two small holes on the side of the toilet. Could it be that the kitten got in from here? She turned on the flashlight on her phone and shined it into the hole, and sure enough she saw circles, although they were just circles of buttocks. Ziyan tried to pull the cat's butt outward with her hands, and the cat meowed even more miserably. It seemed that it didn't work. It was probably that the little guy was stuck in the toilet.

What should we do? Will the kitten's life be in danger? Ziyan had no choice but to call the firefighters for help and explained the situation to the firefighters. At the beginning of the period, she was worried that the firefighters would not come at night, but she did not expect them to be working so late at night.

After the firefighters arrived, they carefully inspected the scene. At present, they could only move the toilet away to see if the kitten was stuck before making a decision. After they used professional tools to dismantle the toilet, they found that the kitten was indeed stuck inside. The kitten should have got in through the hole on the side of the toilet, and got into another hole in the toilet. Its head got in smoothly, but its body was too big to get in. When they tried to move back, they found that their head couldn't get out, so it was stuck.

After ensuring that there was no immediate life danger in the circle, Ziyan finally let go of her hanging heart. She looked at the kitten with only a round head showing, and looked at the fireman with pleading eyes, innocent and pitiful. Both the younger brother and Ziyan couldn't help laughing.

The little brother wanted to push the kitten's head back through the hole, but it didn't work after several attempts. He and Ziyan explained how to save the cat. They would first use lubricant to see if they could push the cat's head back. If that didn't work, they would have to open the toilet. Opening the toilet might cause harm to the kitten, but they would do it bit by bit to minimize the damage to the kitten.

Ziyan agreed with the fireman's plan because they are the most professional rescuers and their plan must be the best. The little brother gently applied lubricant to the stuck part of the kitten's neck, and slowly pushed its head in. After trying a few times, it actually clicked back in! When the kitten was rescued, everyone breathed a sigh of relief!

The enthusiastic fireman also helped Ziyan put the toilet back and reminded her to block the two holes on the side of the toilet. Many small animals like to get into small spaces. They have received similar requests for help before. Ziyan expressed her gratitude to the firefighters. When I wanted to give them some financial compensation, my brother refused, saying that it was their duty to help the masses and they would not charge any fees. The firefighter guy is really the most handsome man in the world!

After sending the fireman away, Ziyan went home and carefully inspected her cat's body. There was no damage except that it was a little dirty. She gave it a bath. The little guy was probably too tired after a long night of tossing, so he quickly fell asleep.

Everyone likes to joke that cats are liquids, but they never thought that liquids could get stuck. Xiao Ai feels that not only cats, but also many small animals like to drill holes, such as dogs and rabbits. This reminds all pet owners to always pay attention to some small safety hazards at home. Try to prevent your pets from being exposed to these dangerous factors and nip them in the bud. Let pets have a safe and comfortable growth environment.
