00:00Let me tell you about the night I became an accidental cat rescue person.
00:06There I was, walking home, under a sky so black it looked like someone had spilled ink on it.
00:14Then I heard it, a sound like a squeaky toy, but with lots of despair.
00:20Turns out, a white with gray kitten had gotten itself trapped in a PVC pipe.
00:26Nature's most baffling kitten trap.
00:32I'd like to say I sprang into action like a fireman without gear.
00:37But really, it took me about seven minutes of me figuring out where the meow was coming from
00:44and up to whispering, please don't bite me, while arm deep in a pipe.
00:50When I finally pulled this little cute puff free, he was in shock, but very adorable.
01:01Like a dusty snowball.
01:06I named him Pipe because, you know, in my naivety, I thought my cats would welcome him with open paws.
01:14Spoiler, they did not.
01:18My resident feline overlords treated him like a tiny, furry, bullfrog.

02:18Notice that our place is very dark without any lights because the electricity company cut our power supply due to late payments
02:41Thanks to someone else who did not pay their share of the electricity bill

06:21Another way to feed pipe is using powdered goat milk.
06:33Mix it with warm water.
06:35Pour milk into a glass and mix.
06:38Gently introduce kitten to the milk.
06:42Powdered goat milk is easy to store and prepare.
06:46Provides essential nutrients.
06:49It's better to put a little powder and more water to make it mild for kitten's tummy.
06:55Make it an occasional food source.
07:19He sure does like massages like this although his face does not show it.
07:40Going back to the beginning, I heard loud meows from somewhere but initially I really could
07:59not find where that sound was coming from.
08:02But it sounded very urgent so I checked on this hole.
08:08It's a tube and he was being frantic.
08:12He is asking for help.
08:15I kept reaching inside the pipe to grab him.
08:19But he kept backing up.
08:21I was desperate so I looked at the plants around me and broke a stem.
08:27As I put the stem inside the pipe, I imagined he'll just hold on to it and I'll pull him
08:33up.
08:34But to my surprise and relief, he had the energy to climb up.
08:50And there he is, safe and sound, at last.
