I once used a cat to pull a string through a (much larger) conduit, then used that to pull a wire. lucretius, crenca and Ajax 1 2 Link to comment

First you tie a string to the cat's tail, then you release a mouse to run thru the conduit and then the cat chases the mouse to the other end of the conduit. But maybe sardines are better as you don't need the mouse. The string (fishing line) was tied to the tail. esldude and lucretius 2 Link to comment

They sometimes use ferrets to pull cables. If the conduit is too narrow for a ferret, you'll need something else. Maybe a cockroach. Apparently they can be controlled with a suitable attachment.
