SAN CARLOS PARK, Florida (WBBH) — Firefighters with the San Carlos Park Fire Protection and Rescue District had to get creative to save some kittens stuck in the middle of a culvert Friday morning.
In a post on Facebook, firefighters said that they received a public assist call for the three kittens. They say that with the diameter of the culvert and the location of the kittens, the best course of action was to make a “kitten water slide.”
Low-pressure water was sprayed into the higher end of the culvert, and firefighters say that all three kittens rode the wave down to the other end and into the arms of residents.
The kittens and their mom were taken to Guardians of Florida by a volunteer.
