Kitteh survives 12-story fall in NYC

http://www.sfgate.com/news/us/article/Cat-survives-9-story-fall-in-NYC-5690626.php

A cat named Gizmo has only minor injuries after a 12-story fall at a Manhattan apartment building.

Owner Samuel Jacobs says Gizmo fell off his penthouse terrace on Tuesday. He crashed onto a third-floor landing and became wedged between a skylight and a wall....

Jacobs says the gray and black cat was "freaked out." He rushed his pet to a vet, fearing massive internal injuries.

The diagnosis: scratches and a broken tooth.
