A lucky litter of kittens are now safely in foster care after they were discovered hiding inside the rafters of a semi-derelict house by the new homeowner.
The man was working on the renovation of his bungalow in Irthlingborough, Northamptonshire, when he heard what he thought were rats in the loft.
But a tiny 'meow' convinced him otherwise and he called in the experts from animal charity Cats Protection to help rescue the adorable moggies.
