A pet cat who went missing on New Year's Eve was rescued from a car engine six days later.

Seven-year-old Koko was heard crying under the bonnet of a Ford Mondeo in Neath Road, Plymouth.

Firefighters spent 45 minutes rescuing her during an operation they began at about 21:00 GMT on Sunday.

Owner Natalie Kruger, 35, said she had "no idea" how Koko had become stuck, but she said she was not hurt, describing her as a "very lucky kitty".

"I was thinking the worst," said Ms Kruger. "She's never really been out before.

"She's lost a fair bit of weight and she was very dusty and dirty, but she's OK."
