Kitten survives 30mile bonnet ordeal

A curious kitten has been rescued from under a car bonnet after hitching a lift for a 30-mile journey.

The seven-week-old male cat, now named Yaris after the car he stowed away in, was luckily unharmed and has now been offered a home by the driver who found him.

Rosalind O’brien drove from her home in Winsford, Cheshire, to her mother’s house in Neston, about 30 miles away, last Tuesday before she was alerted to the cat’s presence by a loud meow coming from inside the vehicle.
