ABC reports that a cat named Lucky squeezed out of a window in a high-rise apartment. Lucky then slipped and fell 26 stories and landed on a neighbor's balcony below. Lucky's fall was captured on film by a window washing crew.
"I guess he thought he was safer than he actually was," Keri Hostetler said.
The window in Keri's home office was only open 6 inches, but that was wide enough for Lucky, a curious cat, to squeeze through.
Lucky reportedly had only minor injuries. Gothamist posted this useful link to the ASPCA's page on high-rise syndrome, which has some great tips for information about how to keep curious cats safe.
