Moment driver rescues kitten from his car engine after hearing it meowing as he sat in Bangkok’s rush-hour traffic during 18-MILE commute

A stray kitten was rescued from a car engine by a Thai driver who heard the tiny cat  meowing while he was on his way to work.

Settachet Guedchai heard the cat’s faint cries coming from his car while stuck in morning rush hour traffic in Bangkok during his 18-mile commute on October 21.

The baffled driver pulled over and checked inside his car, but couldn’t find anything. It was only when he followed the sound that he was surprised to find a male kitten hidden in his engine.

Heartwarming footage shows Settachet coaxing the frightened ginger cat to a spot where he could rescue it, as it is trapped out of reach inside the engine.

As the driver tries to figure out the best way to reach the animal, the cat desperately cries as it tries to escape from the engine.

Just over a minute later, Settachet manages to coax the cat along to a clearer area in the engine and he reaches down and pulls the kitten out by the scruff of its neck.

The kitten looks afraid as it takes in quick breaths while sitting on the bonnet of the car being lovingly stroked by Settachet.

After bringing the kitten safely home, the kindhearted driver adopted it.

He said: ‘I’m surprised the cat survived. It was more than a 30-kilometre (18-mile) drive to the office.’

It is not the first time that a lucky feline’s cries were heard by a motorist, as two kittens were rescued from a car engine by a Malaysian driver in September.

The man said he saw a mother cat run out from under his car and heard the kittens’ cries when he started his engine, so he spent five minutes trying to track them down before starting the rescue mission.

Adorable footage, taken in Alor Gajah, Malacca, on September 23, shows the man attempting to reach inside the bonnet to save the kittens, who were hidden deep in the engine bay.

The clip begins with the unnamed man attempting to reach down under the bonnet to get the kittens, but he is unable to grab them as they are tucked away in a corner.

Using a broom, the man reaches down, with his whole arm disappearing into the bay, and pulls each kitten out by the scruff of its neck before leaving them to be reunited with their mother.

Agile cats can end up trapped in cars as they are attracted to the warmth of the engines and climb inside, but are sometimes unable to get back out again.

In December 2018, pet cat was rescued unscathed by a fire crew after being driven around for an hour trapped inside the engine of its owner’s car in London.

Dr Dominic Pimenta, a junior doctor, had parked outside a supermarket after dropping his wife at work, when he heard a meowing sound.

Dr Pimenta eventually dialled 999 for help and it took five firemen to finally squeeze the cat of his hiding place after dismantling part of the engine.

And just two years before, a kitten amazingly survived with just minor burns after it was trapped for 20 miles in a car engine in north Wales.

Driver Andrew Higgins set off from his home in Rhyl, north Wales, but after 20 miles into the drive he felt the car losing power on the A55.

He pulled over when he lost power and opened the bonnet to find his neighbour’s kitten Paws, a six-month-old tabby, who incredibly only suffered minor burns.

In Yorkshire, two-year-old tabby was found trapped in a car engine when the driver called a mechanic – a week after the cat went for a nap under the bonnet.

The cat, which was renamed Lucky, was found trapped in a Nissan Primera when it broke down in Malton, North Yorkshire, back in September 2014.

Mechanic Ian Brindle, who opened up to bonnet to find the starving pet staring back at him, said that she had a ‘lucky escape’.
