KUCHING: Sarawak firefighters went above and beyond the call of duty to rescue a cat stuck in a coconut tree in Kampung Dayak Tabuan here this morning.
The ordeal of the stranded female feline was noticed by a villager who was passing by the area.
He later alerted the state Fire and Rescue Department, which deployed a team of six men to the village at about 10am.
A spokesman from the department said rescuers took about 30 minutes to bring the helpless cat down using a ladder.
