An off-duty sheriff's lieutenant, his wife and a good Samaritan helped rescue a kitten after he ran through traffic on the 60 Freeway in the Diamond Bar area and then got stuck in the engine compartment of a stopped vehicle, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said Wednesday.
Lt. Min Dinh, a 31-year veteran of the department, and his wife, retired sheriff's Lt. Jenny Ha, were driving home from church on the westbound 60 near the Grand Avenue exit on Sunday when they saw a woman sitting on a blanket in the emergency lane. The couple pulled over to help with what they thought was a disabled vehicle, Dinh said.
But the woman, Cathy Chang, told them that she saw a kitten running across the freeway and immediately stopped her vehicle.
Dramatic dash camera video from Chang's car released by the Sheriff's Department on Facebook showed the feline narrowly avoid getting struck as he darted across the freeway.
After navigating safely to the right shoulder, the cat ran under Chang's car and into the engine, she said.

Where is the pic of the star?
LOL!
Every orange cat I’ve had has been a long-hair mix - with tons of health problems. I loved them to death, and they both lived 10 to 15 years-
but I’m staying away from long-haired Orange cats, now.
Article.
don’t act like a troll.
America is not gonna be nuked by any damn body. Quit fear mongering.
With NK getting out of the nuke business, China wants to stay on Mr. Trump’s good side, and Iran pretty much is going to stand in the corner, it is good to read a true feel-good story.
Thank-you.
Thank-you for the PING!
Thanks for sharing. I found it interesting that the gal just happened to have a can of cat food in the car. Maybe I need to add that to my car “emergency” kit. HA
Who pissed on your cornflakes?

I have to agree with you there. I don’t think I have ever met an orange tabby that wasn’t super sweet and affectionate. I cat sit for a few. Even the female orange tabby I know is like that.
My pleasure.
