Cat falls 17 stories ... and lives!!!

The Ontario SPCA is probing a case that's both a tragedy and a triumph. It involves a cat that took a very strange trip and lived to tell the tale.

It happened on Tuesday when the animal experts arrived at a building at Dixie and Orchard Hill Roads in Mississauga to find a feline badly injured but still alive. The animal had broken teeth, needed surgery to repair them and was bruised in a number of places.

That's the tragedy.

But here's the triumph: officials think the furry friend fell 17 storeys, and somehow survived. Cats are famous for plunging from great heights and landing on their feet. But 17 floors up is almost always fatal even for the most fleet footed of creatures.
