Default British food shop in cat rescue drama

On MSNBC's front page this is currently being given almost as much prominence as a story about GWB telling fibs about Saddam having mobile WMD labs. Anyway, it seems that the best British food shop* in the New York area have currently got their cat stuck behind a basement wall.

*they make the best pork pies this side of the Atlantic.

There pastry sausage rolls are nice, but bit pricey.
Maybe we should pop round and offer to help.

I never eat anything that's chopped or minced. You can recognise the reconstituted stuff a mile away. It makes me heave just thinking about it.
