A DISTRESSED cat is feline better after firefighters came to its aid when it got trapped in a car in Redditch today (Friday May 22).

A crew from Redditch were called to Wythall Green Way in Wythall at around 4.05pm this afternoon and found the cat stuck in the engine compartment of the vehicle.

But the moggy was saved from its ordeal when fire fighters helped release it from the car.
