A cat emerged from a hole in a wall and into the hearts of the people who opened their home to her.

A few weeks ago, Little Wanderers NYC was contacted about a stray cat hiding in a hoe in a basement. The caller was concerned about the cat's safety and hoped to get her into foster care.

Upon receiving the plea, a rescuer rushed to the basement of the building and found the hole in a wall where the calico had taken refuge. When she gently called out to the cat, the calico's face appeared.

With some treats and soft words, the cat emerged from the wall and sampled a few kibbles before seeking attention from the rescuer.
