Animals in Need volunteers ramp it up to save cat in south Donegal


'Big thank you to the neighbours who allowed access and our volunteer team, led by William, who was the brain behind the rescue - our volunteers really do go above and beyond'
Volunteers in Ballintra were on the verge of calling in a cherry picker to save a cat stuck on a dilapidated building this week.
However, on close inspection, it would’ve been unsafe, so a plan was hatched to construct a ramp to save the cat.
“Yesterday, when reports started coming in of a cat stuck on the roof of a derelict building in Ballintra, we went to try and help, as had locals before us,” Animals in Need Donegal posted on Thursday.


“The first thought was to get a cherry picker, but at closer inspection, we realised it would have no access due to nearby electric wires. Big thank you to the neighbours who allowed access and our volunteer team, led by William, who was the brain behind the rescue. Our volunteers really do go above and beyond.”
