"Hello! Aww it came out. Aww hi!" the camera person remarked as the cat was pulled out.

Firefighters were then able to cut a small rectangle into the drywall right where the kitty was stuck.

"The crews weren't kitten around and with a little coaxing, the rest is hiss-tory," the New South Wales Fire and Rescue team wrote on Facebook.
