A Helping Paw
A tiny kitten is recovering from a frightening journey on the Cape in Massachusetts.
She was stuck in a pipe for several days, reports CBS station WBZ-TV in Boston.
A woman in Onset, Mass., called the fire department Friday afternoon after hearing a kitten crying repeatedly in her yard.
Firefighters tracked the 6-week-old down in a PVC pipe.
It took them an hour and some vegetable oil to remove her safely.
She was emaciated and dehydrated. One of her paws may be broken and could require surgery.
She was taken to "A Helping Paw" shelter in Wareham, where she is now recovering.
She's also been named "Piper."
