Kitten trapped 30 feet down a drain with 5000 pound concrete slab on it.

Animal rescuers in New York moved a 5,000-pound slab of concrete to rescue a kitten.

The furry feline was heard crying 30 feet down a drain near Port Jefferson on Long Island. Rescuers used the Jaws of Life to remove the slab from atop the drain to reach the kitten.

The Strong Island Animal Rescue League personnel worked together with police when a kitten was heard crying at the bottom of a drain covered by a large concrete slab near Port Jefferson Station on Long Island.

Rescuers used jacks and a hydraulic rescue tool, sometimes known as the Jaws of Life, to remove the slab from the top of the drain.

Fortunately, the animal is all right, and was taken to Jefferson Animal Hospital. The curious kitty will soon be available for adoption.
