Cat falls several meters and is trapped in cavity wall for 6 days

A cat was successfully rescued after being trapped for six days in a cavity wall following a seven-meter fall. Firefighters assisted the animal ambulance by drilling into an adjacent building, eventually capturing the cat on a roof.

A cat survived a seven-meter fall and remained trapped inside a cavity wall for six days before being rescued. The initial efforts by animal ambulance services to reach the feline proved unsuccessful, necessitating assistance from the local fire department to handle the delicate situation.

To retrieve the cat, firefighters drilled a hole into the wall of an adjacent shop. Once the opening was made, the animal managed to climb upward, allowing rescuers to safely capture it on the roof. The cat is currently receiving care and undergoing medical examinations by specialists to ensure its recovery following the ordeal.
