A Garda motorcyclist today rescued a cat after seeing its head protruding from the front grille of a moving car in Co Galway.

Fortunately for the feline, the eagle-eyed Garda spotted the cat a few miles after the motorist set out.

The cat may not have survived much longer at speeds of 100km per hour on the N7 in wet and windy conditions.placeholder image
