A deputy sheriff heard a noise coming from a storm drain outside the John J. Foley building, a county government office, in Yaphank at about 7:40 p.m.

Members from the Sheriff's Office Emergency Management Section helped the deputies move a dumpster covering the drain and pry it open to rescue the cat.
