Cat missing for a month rescued from drain – Ballito

IPSS Search and Rescue division alongside Specialised Rescue Unit received a call from a resident stating she could hear her cat, who has been missing for a month, in a drain near her residence.

Rescue teams got to work closing off the various drains in order to ensure the cat doesn’t flee further into the drainage system and after much coaxing managed to recover the cat after a 2 day exercise.

Despite being a bit worse for wear, Socks managed to escape his ordeal slightly lighter and with a few scratches.

Many thanks to Specialised Rescue Unit for their assistance, to Nathi from Dolphin Coast SPCA – Ballito and to Marinelli Plumbing for their assistance and use of their specialised camera equipment.
