Get a cat out of the engine compartment?
Yeah back in ‘77. I couldn’t figure what the noise coming from the engine was as I went down to the Safeway that night.
Got my flashlight out. Put on my welder’s gloves (always recommended when dealing with scared felines)and wrestled it loose.
One of our barn cats. Last time it decided to try to get warm inside the truck.
Mine was in a Cadillac belonging to one of my sister’s aerobic clients. I happened to be there babysitting when the woman came in asking for help to get the little kitten out of her car. After all, there are lots of places for a cat,especially that small, to hide, and they move fast.
We opened the hood and on top of the air filter eas the kitty. He started to move but I was fast enough to catch him. He became my Dutch, named for the bunny because he looked like that.
And then there is my beloved Ashley, who got a little nicked and ran off and hid in shock, inside a distant groundhog hole in the wild. My beloved dog helped me find him and drag him out, he was in such shock. He habitually went into cars and this one belonged to a couple my mom was tutoring; they stopped after driving a half mile realizing something was wrong. He was terrified by then, so no problem with the car, only groundhog holes.
