Cat Survives 11-Story Fall from Window
By Amy Sinatra Ayres
Two-year-old Wasabi the cat is wearing a pink cast on one of her front legs after fracturing it in a fall from her owner's 11 th -story apartment in Juneau, Alaska.
The kitty was chasing a mosquito last week, and when the bug escaped out a window, Wasabi followed it and landed in a parking lot.
Her owner, Stephanie Gustafson, found her nearby, hurt and wet from the rain. Veterinarians operated on Wasabi to put pins and wires in her fractured leg and broken bones in a joint. She's expected to take about six weeks to recover. - Read it from AP via Today
