Hello kitty! Stray kitten's head bigger than his belly as he gets stuck in soup can while foraging for food scraps



A 6-month-old stray male kitten got itself in the soup after foraging for food - literally.



The starving male youngster got its head trapped after poking it into a discarded can of Campbell's soup while desperately foraging for scraps of food.



After being found by the roadside, the disheveled kitten was bought to the Metro Animal Services in Louisville, Kentucky, by animal control officer Raymond Thomas and immediately taken to the vet staff.



Where did everyone go! A six-month-old stray kitten got more than he bargained for when he went scavenging for food. The starving kitten got his head stuck in a soup can and was eventually saved by vets who used bolt cutters to remove it

Hello kitty: Staff at the Metro Animal Services in Louisville, Kentucky have named the stray kitten 'Campbell' and is recovering well after his ordeal

Veterinary assistant Brenda Keel initially tried to remove the can, but the distressed kitten - dubbed 'Campbell' - started crying.



He was sedated and a pair of bolt cutters were used to cut the can off of his head.

Cold temperatures and his inability to move meant Campbell was hypothermic, but vets eventually managed to stabilise his condition.



'Our staff did a great job rescuing this little guy from what could have been a 'can-tastrophe',' said Jackie Gulbe, Animal Services assistant director for community relations.
