Firefighters came to the rescue of a cat stuck on the roof of a Judea house late last night.
Tauranga senior station officer Mark Keller said the black cat had been on the roof a few hours when they arrived at the Churchill Rd house just after 11pm.
The owners were "quite panicky" and very worried the adventurous moggie would injure itself.
He said it was in a precarious spot on the highest part of the roof of the two-storey house.
The crew put a ladder up and a firefighter climbed up to rescue the cat.
