Cat Stuck on Lamp Post Uses Power Line as Tightrope to Evade Rescuer

2016-05-16 2

Members of the Algerian Civil Defense in Oran province arrived to rescue a cat stuck up a lamp post recently, but the cat had other ideas. One of civil defense team climbed a ladder to reach the cat, but the feline, an adept high-wire artist as it turned out, simply skipped from the lamp post and onto a power cable.

Spectators gasped at one near fall before the cat eventually dropped from the cable, its fall broken by a sheet carried by the civil defense members. Credit: YouTube/Salah Oran
