Pets in Central Texas get stuck in strange places all the time it feels like. Sometimes, we all wonder how the animal even got there. But for one mechanic and kitten in Waco, it took a while to save the tiny animal.

How Did A Waco Mechanic Help A Kitten?

As reported by FOX 44, The Humane Society of Central Texas was alerted to a situation at Mechanic Near Me Auto Shop. What was going on? Did a wild animal appear at the business?

Well, in actuality, workers at the business discovered a tiny kitten inside a car engine. How the cat managed to get into the engine is unknown, but the workers decided to get the kitten out safe and sound. After successfully retrieving the kitten from the engine, they made sure the little kitten was fed and taken care of until the The Humane Society was able to assist.

But, was the kitten named something and could somebody in Waco potentially adopt it?

Is The Kitten Rescued From The Engine Adoptable?

The good news is that yes, the kitten does indeed have a name. Per FOX 44, the kitten has been bestowed with the name "Fortuna." The name itself comes from the fact the cat was given another chance at living, thanks to the workers at the auto shop.

So, the big question on everybody's mind is none other than this: can somebody from Waco, or perhaps Central Texas, adopt Fortuna? Well, not at the current moment.

But, the future is bright, as the kitten will be adoptable sometime in the future!
