Cat in a corner, on the (l)edge of despair�.

Our Animal Support department received a call, just last night (June 18, 2014), about a cat perched on the 11th floor ledge of a public housing block along Yishun Ring Road.

Our rescue team was quickly despatched to the scene, and found the tri-coloured cat, a local community feline, trapped on that dangerously inclined ledge, reportedly for some time. It may not have budged from its spot, sensing the height and gradient.

Our officer immediately used a catchpole to help haul the cat into a carrier, lifting it out of its ordeal.

Apart from having its nerves shaken, the cat was found to be alright and unharmed. The cat was then released back safely on the ground floor, after the caller has assured us that there are indeed community members there who do look into the regular care of their community cats.

We thank Ms Jessie, our caller, who alerted us to the distressed cat.

Members of the public can, likewise, help us to help any distressed, injured and/or sick animal, by calling our 24-hour emergency hotline at 62875355 extension 9. Clear emergency cases would be given top priority. Do also refer to this page from our website, on how you can help: http://www.spca.org.sg/services_animal_rescue.asp
