A rescue team in Ubon Ratchathani has successfully saved a stranded kitten after it fell into an abandoned 11-metre-deep well, surviving without food or water for four days. The rescue was met with widespread admiration.

 

On 20 March, members of the Sawang Buchatham Rescue Unit and instructors from the Jack Fire Rescue Training Service were called to the scene behind the Sadawaan Group office on Warin Chamrap-Kantrarom Road, Warin Chamrap District. Using rope rescue equipment, the team assessed the situation was safe, before making their descent.

 

The well, long disused, contained a smaller secondary pit at the bottom. A weak but still vocal female kitten with brown-and-black fur was found clinging to the lower ledge, meowing for help. Fire and rescue trainer Nakharin Songsopa confirmed that no toxic gases were present before descending down and safely retrieving the kitten.

 

Suphawat Kamman, 53, a staff member at the Sadawaan Group, revealed that the kitten, named Nang Suea, was a stray that had been living around the office for the past couple of months. She had been cared for by staff and was often seen alongside a male cat named Panda, who sadly passed away the previous week.

 

“Nang Suea used to sleep near Panda’s grave, which is close to the well,” Suphawat explained. “A few days after he died, she disappeared. We heard her cries from Sunday but couldn’t find her. Today, my daughter traced the sound and discovered her at the bottom of the well, so we called the rescue team for help.”

 

Fortunately, the well contained no harmful gases, allowing the kitten to survive for four days.

 

Suphawat expressed gratitude to the rescue team, saying, “I’m so thankful that everyone saw the value of this little life. Even though she’s just a stray kitten, she deserves to be saved.”
