Leo, the Amazing Abyssinian, Still Holds the Record

Last week ABC News reported on a cat named Lucky that survived a fall from the 26th floor of an apartment building in lower Manhattan.  Lucky landed on a grill cover on the sixth floor--a fall of 20 stories--but lived to meow about it, breaking only a toe and his lower jaw.

As I've often said before, the farther a cat falls, the less likely it will suffer a fatal injury.  Remember Leo who fell/jumped from the 46th floor of Manhattan Plaza and broke no bones at all?  Little Bytes is happy to report that Leo is still the champ.  (But we also congratulate Lucky and his owners.)
