TAXI DRIVER GETS PURRFECT SURPRISE AFTER DISCOVERING KITTENS UNDER THE BONNET

- JASBIR AUTHI News Reporter

Now that's what we call a purring engine!

A BIRMINGHAM taxi driver had the purrfect surprise when he found a litter of newly-born kittens in the engine of his car.

Syed Miah had just stepped out from his Toyota C-HR after doing the school run in Kings Heath at about 9am on Monday when he heard curious cat noises.

Together with his neighbour, they had a look around the surrounding bushes and plants but drew a blank.

The dad-of-two was told there had been lots of cat activity around his car during the day and one could be inside it.
