PD: It's inside here?
Informant: Yes, it's inside
What is inside?
Informant: Cats are living in here. They've been living here for over 2 years because they're stuck.
Informant: They come down quickly to eat and then come back up
The informant loosens the screw and opens the hole
Prepares pet food and water
And closes the lid
Informant: I think it's been 2 years. The people have rescued the mother and one kitten.
The other kitten is left but it will never come out..
We decided to keep an eye out
Because no sound was heard or movement was seen
Half day has passed...
Checking the hole again...
The pet food is gone!?
This means a cat is living here!
We quickly try to insert an endoscope camera
But the area is full of dust and spiderwebs. No other clues are found.
Would it be somewhere else..
PD: It's nowhere to be seen
After leaving a can of tuna,
We installed a camera inside and decided to wait.
We checked the place we left the food..
Assistant director: It's not there
The can has disappeared!
Checking the camera that was installed
Then!! A foot stepping in for the can!
The cat is busily eating the can..
We wanted to take a closer look but the cat left with the can
In order to figure out the cat's travel route
We wait with the endoscope camera fixed inside the wall
Assistant director: It's here!
The cat appears being weary of the surroundings
It eats difficulty while doing a handstand and disappears..
We have to rescue the cat as soon as possible
Vet: It's very interested in eating and it's used to receiving soon so it might enter the rescue area..
First off, find a space around the area it eats the food
Inside there are plates that the informant used to serve food
Informant: When I give one serving, it's 2 plates of 500ml.. one is for water and the other for pet food.
Make the capture area dark with black paper
And let the cat naturally come in to eat
A lot of tension...
PD: It came!
The cat we've been waiting for has appeared.
Vet: It's struggling
It's coming towards the capture area..!
But the cat turns back and returns...
Vet: It only made a small appearance..
It disappeared and didn't show up for the next hours.
Vet: I think it feels uneasy due to the change in environment.
Vet: It will be difficult to rescue the cat this way
Investigating a second method
Guessing where the cat would be and rip off the roof
Technical expert: The cat isn't here
Trying to open up a different area
Vet: This is the toilet.. The excretion is hard because the area has been used as a toilet for 2 years. It's been long.
Opening up another area to locate the cat..
It was decided that it escaped through the path connecting 1st and 2nd floor
While checking with the endoscope camera on the roof of the 2nd floor!!
PD: Are those eyes?
People: It's over there!!
PD: Huh? It's moving! Going up!
Starting to make a hole in the roof of the 2nd floor immediately
Then! We saw the cat pass through a different hole!
Very cute
And it looks quite relaxed too..
Making the crew frustrated by showing its face in and out
The crew try to gather the cat to the 1st floor
Waiting..
Vet: It's coming down! Catch him!!
Frustrating the crew till the end...
Safely rescues the cat!!
Clap!!
Vet: Good job everyone..
Informant: Good job
The cat looks around at the outside world..
Heading to the hospital first to check its health
However
The cat decides to escape in an instant!!
After injecting it with sedatives
We check its state again..
It looks daunt from the lack of food and drinking..
Vet: Ah... the toenail is deformed.. the toenail has to be cut but it's stuck on the skin
It's difficult to imagine how painful it is
Detailed examinations are being done
Vet: When looking at the X-ray and blood tests, the cat is very healthy.
It is thanks to the informant,
who took good care of the cat so it can be healthy
Informant: What a relief. I was so worried.
That night, the cat goes to the informant's house
Then!
One cat goes towards it..?
PD: How many cats do you have?
Informant: I have 6 in total.
Informant: I brought in one right before it was euthanized
Informant: This one was brought home after it was kicked out of various houses
The informant opens the cage door..
and prepares food
It looks uneasy as it's used to living behind walls
The cat avoids the informant and heads towards..
The corner
It's lying down!!
Informant: I have to take good care of it..
Informant: It will be doing fine.
Seems like the cat will find some comfort
