Cat gets stuck in coffee table in M’sia, rescuers saw through wood to free it

Cat gets stuck in coffee table in Malaysia, owner calls rescuers to help

Thanks to their insatiable curiosity, cats have a knack for wedging themselves into the tightest of spots — sometimes with hilariously troublesome results.

In Sabah, Malaysia, a mischievous tabby found itself in quite the predicament when it got its head stuck in a hole of a coffee table on Monday (23 Sept), creating a scene that resembled a real-life game of whack-a-mole.

The Malaysian Civil Defence Force sprang into action, swiftly dispatching a team to the scene.

Equipped with a saw, the officers carefully sliced through the wooden table, successfully freeing the trapped tabby and returning it safely to its relieved owner.

Netizens were thoroughly entertained, flooding the comments with playful quips.

“This is what they mean by curiosity killing the cat!” one user joked.

Another cheekily suggested putting the cat on a diet. However, someone pointed out that it was the head that was stuck, not the body.

In any case, we hope the kitty has learned a valuable lesson about keeping its head out of places it doesn’t belong.
