Here's a throwback from our archives. A group of Roto-Rooter service technicians rescued a kitten that was trapped inside an underground sewer pipe back in 1993. Roto-Rooter has always fielded the latest plumbing technology, and back in 1993, the cameras used in this rescue were state-of-the-art. Today, we use modern, high-resolution pipe inspection cameras to help our customers identify the source of their pipe troubles. But we still use them to find and rescue lost kittens and puppies too!
