Police rescued a kitten who got trapped in a storm drain in Queens, according to a Tweet put out by the NYPD.

The cat made its way into the drain sometime early Wednesday but had to be rescued by a detective from the department’s Emergency Services Unit when it couldn’t get back out.

The cop, identified in the Tweet as Detective Hirsch, opened up the drain and rescued the kitten while wading in waist-deep water.

The location of the incident wasn’t immediately known, but happened somewhere in the 115th Precinct, which covers Jackson Heights, Corona and East Elmhurst.

The NYPD’s Special Ops Twitter account praised the officer who saved the cat.

“#ESU Det Hirsch is feline good this morning after climbing down a storm drain & rescuing a trapped kitten @NYPD115Pct #PurrfectTiming.”
