The black feline named John became stuck inside a pipe connected to a garage - prompting Avon Fire and Rescue Service crew from Clevedon Fire Station in Somerset to cut the cat out.
The firefighters were called to Clevedon on Saturday morning and used small tools to rescue John, before transporting it to a local vet where the remaining drainpipe could be removed.
Fire crew later posted pictures of the incident which captured John's head poking out from the pipe.
The photos also showed firefighters cradling the cat with part of the drainpipe still attached to its neck.
