Cats Able to Leap Tall Buildings



Pet Health News reported on a cat which fell from its owner's 32 story apartment. "After a two-day stay at the veterinarian, the animal returned home with only mild chest injuries and a chipped tooth."

In a five month period, Animal Medical Center in New York recorded 132 cases of cats falling from high-rise buildings. The cats fell an average of 5-1/2 stories, and most fell directly onto concrete.

"Amazingly enough though, 90 percent of the cats survive the fall!"
