Cat survives for five days underground after Storm Eowyn

Animal rescue officer Stephanie Smillie said: “Cleo had been there for over five days with no access to food or water, so we knew we had to do everything in our power to get her out safely.

“After several attempts to lure Cleo out with food, planks of wood and a rope, we quickly realised she didn’t have enough energy to climb out on her own.”

Fire crews tore up floorboards and discovered a small trap door leading into the foundations.

Ms Smillie said: “With their help, we were finally able to reach Cleo and free her.

“She was exhausted, but after lots of cuddles, a good meal, and a big drink of water, she was doing much better.”
