Cat rescue operation
In Houston, Texas, last week, a cat was heard meowing high up on a 6 story support pillar on the Houston freeway. The striped grey kitten was spotted high up and seemed to be stranded unable to get down so a lift had to be used to take a worker up the pillar to rescue the cat.
Charles Jantzen, an SPCA investigator claims that the cat will have fallen through the expansion joint of the freeway and fallen or landed on the pillar, no one is quite sure how the kitten had managed to climb so high or get there in the first place and it was obvious that the female kitten had wandered far from home and may have been missing for quite a while. Rescuers, however, are not sure just how long the kitty may have been stranded for on the pillar.
The rescue mission was videoed and showed Charles Jantzen gently coaxing the frightened kitten to him and grabbing the kitten to safety. Mr Jantzen claimed the cat was most certainly dehydrated and would get special treatment from the SPCA.
It was a nearby resident, Blake McGee who had heard the marooned feline when he was walking past the pillar one evening, when he realised the sound was coming from way above him he realised that there was a stuck cat needing help.
The equipment which had to be used by the SPCA in the rescue was an extended liftable platform.
