Watch the moment a domestic cat was saved from the river Liffey after clinging on to a rock for many hours with little prospect of rescue.
Casper the cat somehow got himself into difficulty shortly before midday yesterday when he entered the water close to the bridge on Bridge Street in Ringsend.
The DSPCA team received a helpful call from a passerby who had spotted the terrified 18-month-old cat perched on a rock in the water.
