BANGKOK - A tomcat in Bangkok, Thailand, survived a six-storey fall with no severe injuries despite making a big hole on a car windscreen.
The digital creator, who also owns a cat, said he could not get angry when he saw the frightened cat, which was hiding under his car after jumping out of the big hole of his broken windscreen. Closed-circuit camera footage shows the 8.5kg feline hanging briefly from the balcony on the sixth floor before falling off. It briefly hits the third-floor balcony before crashing onto the rear windscreen of Mr Apiwat’s car.He also said on Monday that Shifu was eating and excreting well after the incident.Mr Thanakorn Jongjaemfah, the manager of the condo located in Soi Sathupradit 49, said the incident shows why residents are banned from raising pets, reported The Nation.
Another cat in Staten Island, New York, also survived after falling off a balcony and damaged a car’s front windscreen in 2012.Also in 2012, a cat in Boston fell from a 19-storey window and survived with a bruised chest.For one thing, they have a relatively large surface area in proportion to their weight, which reduces the impact at which they hit the ground.
