A cat was saved from the Liffey by the fire brigade and there were wonderful scenes

He didn’t even use up one of his nine lives.

CATS ARE LITTLE rascals.

One such messer managed to land himself in the River Liffey today and had to be rescued by the Dublin Fire Brigade and the DSPCA.

The cat fell into the water, but managed to swim to a ledge at the edge

When approached, it did NOT want to be rescued
