The small black cat was whining when the fire service arrived at the property in Park Road, and jumped up further before its rescue.

An appliance from Cromer was called at 11.20am today and was on scene at 11.58 when it rescued the cat.

The cat was uninjured, despite the rising temperature on the roof due to warm weather.

A witness said the cat was hanging on to the guttering with its claws before its rescue.
