HISTORICAL FACTS: Kitten rescued with glass bowl on head now nicknamed buzz lightyear - Caught on Camera

A kitten that was found wandering around with a glass bowl on its head has been nicknamed Buzz Lightyear in Massachusetts. The six-month-old kitty was spotted wandering around an American neighbourhood after reportedly getting its head wedged inside.

Animal services in Fall River were able to lure the feline with treats and prised the helmet-like obstruction off its head. Animal Rescue League of Boston’s (ARL) Field Services Department assisted Fall River Animal Control to rescue the kitten, with what "appeared to be a glass bowl or light fixture cover stuck on its head".

A spokesperson said: "The six-month-old kitten, now named Buzz Lightyear, was spotted along the 200 block of Danforth Street by a nearby resident who has been monitoring and feeding cats in the area, who then contacted Fall River Animal Control.
