(UPI) Animal rescuers in Colorado came to the rescue of a stray kitten who "took a wrong turn and ended up on the interstate."

The Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region said on social media that a pair of officers responded to a report of a kitten running loose amid the 90-degree heat on Interstate 25.

"This kitten took a wrong turn and ended up on the interstate," the post said.

 

The kitten, dubbed Barney by rescuers, was "panting and exhausted" when officers caught up with him.

"Barney was a bit upset at first that we ended his real-life game of Frogger early, but a cold drink of water, kibble, and a long nap later, Barney was happy to be safe at the shelter and out of danger," officials wrote.
