The counselors at a high school in Northern California were going about their daily routine when they suddenly heard what they initially thought were unusual sounds coming from the vents. However, they soon recognized that the sounds were really small meows.
Everyone in the office sprung into action right away. The kittens could be found, but they couldn’t immediately reach them.
What is happening here? Worth the watch.
@bringyogreenhat What is happening here? Worth the watch.
“On a Tuesday, we heard sounds coming from the vents, and we were able to see some kittens on the roof by the air conditioning unit,” Jeremiah Jones, one of the school counselors, told The Dodo.
“The maintenance staff set a trap to try to trap them, and were able to trap the mom Wednesday morning, but not the kittens, so they let the mom go so she could try to stay with them.”
On Thursday, a maintenance worker was able to rescue three kittens, but the counseling staff was still hearing meows coming from the vents. The maintenance worker climbed onto a desk, opened up the ceiling and started searching.
Sure enough, he was able to pull two tiny kittens from the ceiling, and luckily, they were both totally OK.
“The counseling staff and a student office aide were in disbelief as our awesome campus maintenance man, Jake, was able to locate them and cut them out of the ceiling,” Jones said. “The kittens seemed hungry and were crying out as they were rescued.”
The kittens were placed with local families after being given the all-clear on their health. They are now secure and sound thanks to the counseling staff’s perseverance, and if they ever hear meows coming from the ceiling again, they will know just what to do.
