Iowa tow truck driver who helped save stray kitten from car grille adopts her

AMES, Iowa —

A stray kitten stuck in a car grille was rescued at an Iowa coffee shop drive-thru after a customer heard crying from inside her car.

Workers from the Ames Animal Shelter and a tow truck driver worked together to dismantle the front of the car, freeing the kitten after 15 minutes.

The kitten’s worst injury was a blister on her paw.

She is now settling into her new home with the tow truck driver who helped save her.

“I was sitting there and going, ‘You know what? I think we need to adopt her and give her a good home, and I think Willow would love her.’ And my wife’s like, ‘Yeah, oh yeah,'” Jordan said.

The kitten was named Dolly, after the dollies of a truck.
