Keeping your house or flat in good repair is essential. Without regular maintenance, you run the risk of the structure suddenly giving way one day.
However, it's just as important these days to pay close attention to the pets in your home, to avoid any potential accidents or nasty surprises. Just like in this case!
A routine renovation
A year ago, Twitter user @patatilla shared a story that stunned many animal lovers.
As the bathroom in her house needed repairing, she hired a team of builders who worked all day. The job included replacing the tiles around the bath, which were a bit worn from constant contact with water. This was no problem for the workers, and they even finished the repairs the very same day.
Trapped behind the wall!
But as night fell, @patatilla heard strange noises coming from the bathroom! To be more precise, they were coming from the freshly tiled walls around the bath.
At that moment, a chill ran down her spine! She suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen her cat all day. She had a dreadful feeling: while the builders were fixing the tiles, her cat must have slipped into one of the holes in the wall. The reality was, he was now trapped behind the wall!
The cat's owner had no choice but to smash the brand new tiles to free her desperate cat.
