Cat hitches a lift to Cork under car bonnet

It could have been a cat-astrophe but luckily, it’s come to a purrfect end.

Meet Maude, the kitty cat stowaway, who must have used up at least eight of her nine lives on the road trip of a lifetime.

Maud emerged unscathed yesterday after hitching a lift from Dublin to Cork hidden in the engine of some German tourists’ rental car.
