SEATTLE (Gray News) - A cat owner in Seattle says one of her felines survived a scary fall from a building earlier this week.
Jessica Tonani said that her cat named Mr. Banks fell 11 stories off her deck on Wednesday. He suffered three broken legs but somehow survived the fall.
Miracles happen. Mr. Banks is a fighter, she said.
According to Tonani, the 11-month-old cat must have fallen after 9 a.m. She had just finished a conference call that morning and was about to leave the house but couldnt locate him.
About 30 minutes later, Tonani said she went outside to look for him and when she called him, she could hear him crying.
She ended up spotting him on an awning above the entrance of the building.
The building manager got a ladder and helped Tonani retrieve Mr. Banks.
The injured cat was then put inside a carrier and taken to a nearby veterinary clinic.
