Snowy was extracted from the engine bay of the car and whisked to the vet surgery, where he received treatment for shock and an X-ray to diagnose the extent of the damage caused by his ordeal.
The images confirmed Snowy had suffered a very badly broken back leg, which had to be amputated, and he is now recovering.
The team at Arrowfield in Kington said: "We are pleased to report Snowy is doing incredibly well and we are all smitten with this lucky little fighter."
