NEW YORK (AP)  -- Molly the cat is finally free.

After two weeks stuck behind a brick wall in a 19th century Greenwich Village building, workers rescued the bashful
11-month-old feline from her plight late Friday, according to Jean Tannenbaum, a spokeswoman for Animal Care & Control of New York City.

Representatives of Animal Care & Control, a private organization with a city contract to handle lost, injured and unwanted animals, have worked alongside a team of rescuers to drill and hammer out bricks in the cellar of the 157-year-old building to get Molly out.

They used special cameras, set out traps and even tried using kittens to appeal to the cat's maternal side. On Friday, a pet psychic showed up.

Molly usually spends her time at Myers of Keswick, a delicatessen housed in the building. Proprietor Peter Myers opened the store -- which specializes in meat pies, clotted cream and other British food specialties -- 20 years ago and kept Molly to catch mice.
