Here Kitty, Kitty

After work yesterday, Rich and I went to Wal Mart to get some oil for our car.  When we got out of the car, we saw this little tiny gray fur ball laying in the middle of the parking lot.  Realizing it was a baby kitty, we couldn't just leave him there and risk him getting run over... So us brave souls went up to the kitty to try to help it (how we were going to help it we still don't know).

What ended up happening is, the, might I add, ferrel, cat hissed at us and ran away... under our car.  Oaky not so bad?  No, it really went UNDER the hood of our car!!

See those little eyes in the middle there?! 

After valiantly trying for a half hour to get the sucker out, we decided to go in and do our shopping and then surely it would scamper out and we'd be free of a cat in our car.

No such luck.  It was still there when we came back, still there after trying to prod it out for another who knows how long, still there after driving (carefully) back home, still there after Rich changed the oil in our car, still there after we tried to splash water on it to get it out, and STILL THERE after going on another ride to try to let it get out! 

So, if any of you have a clue how to get a stray kitty out from under the hood of your car, PLEASE let me know!!!
