Late Thursday afternoon, a young woman’s white and orange kitten decided to play hide and seek inside the engine block of one of our customer’s vehicles that was parked in front of the building on Main Street. She said she had just gotten the cat from a home where he was abused. Needless to say, the search was on to try to recover the scared critter before the vehicle was cranked over or he got spooked and darted into traffic.
