A professional wildlife removal and relocation expert was called in when a family heard a wild critter in their chimney. After some effort, the expert discovers a cute little kitten. As he pulls it out, he starts talking to it like it understands him. He popped the kitten into a carrier, explaining how the rest of the bobcat rescue would go for the tiny cat.

When the bobcat rescuer brings the little kitten out, he asks it, “How long have you been in there?” like he expected the little critter to answer. The little kitten looked at him but didn’t squeak at him.

Animal Experts Inc. is the agency performing this bobcat rescue. Located in the Tucson area, they can handle almost any wild animal residents may find on their property. They are a humane service and work to reunite animals with their families. When that isn’t possible, they ensure that animals go to facilities that offer them the best chance for survival.

Marc Hammond and Jeff Carver are the men behind the gloves and headlamps. They have been working with animals and wildlife control for 40 years. They were on Nat Geo Wild’s “When Nature Calls” for eight episodes!

Extracting the tiny bobcat kitten from the chimney was the first step in the rescue process. Once secure, they check the little kitten for dehydration and other vital signs. Once they ensure the little animal is in good health and has no injury, they reunite it with the mother bobcat.

This is, of course, the best-case scenario. Wildlife rescue personnel always try to reunite animals with their family when possible. In this case, they had already spotted the mother cat prowling outside.
