"David Loop arrived at 1:30 pm on Sunday and the kitten was finally pulled out at 10:30 pm on Monday," Chris Poole of Cole and Marmalade said.
When Loop came to the premises, he tried to get into the storm drain but it was too small. They could hear the kitten, but had no idea where he was. They kept trying to get back in but couldn't get through.
Then the rain started to pour. The food they put in got washed out, and after hours upon hours of trying, they were soaking wet, shivering but the rain wasn't letting up. Despite all the things against them, they refused to give up and continued their rescue efforts over night.
