The firefighters were forced to disassemble the entire engine compartment on a SUV to reach a kitten trapped inside.

Incredibly, the cat wasn't hurt, but the same can't be said about the car.

The fire department posted a picture on twitter, saying:

"Strange noises from your engine may be something totally unexpected, like a kitty cat! It took quite some time to disassemble the engine compartment and put it back together after getting the cat out. Great job Station 80! #Meow"
