VIENNA -- This little kitty went home, but only after police and firefighters partially dismantled a police car to find it.The naughty feline first woke residents of a Vienna neighborhood with its desperate meowing, then kept police and firefighters busy for much of the night.
She was found under the hood of a car but eluded her rescuers' grasp. The kitten took cover under several other cars before seemingly disappearing , except for her meow.
Firefighters and police finally struck paydirt after jacking up a police cruiser, then following the sound and tracing the wayward kitty to a small space inside the vehicle's floor panel.
But it took half an hour of elbow grease before the critter was nabbed and taken to an animal shelter.
