Kenai was spotted wandering along the rooftops and meowing for help after he climbed into the empty terraced property
A curious eight-month-old kitten prompted a four-hour rescue operation after three days stranded on the roof of a derelict house in Cumbria.

The dilapidated condition of the property caused some concern, and so an initial attempt to rescue Kenai using a ladder at the front of the address was tried. The kitten came very close to the helping hand of one firefighter, but at the last second became nervous and ran back into the roof space for safety.
Martyn said: “Curious little Kenai found himself well and truly stranded and no amount of coaxing with tasty treats was going to get him to come back down again. The weather had been pretty awful, but fortunately he could climb back into the roof space through the hole where the slates were missing, which provided him with some shelter from the elements.
