    Omg wasn’t this story on reddit a few days ago? Something is off here. Why would the cat simply stay there for 5 days? No cat would just sit there for that long - hunger usually gets the better of them and they risk jumping even if afraid at first. Also why haven’t people done anything about that cat in the days since this was posted on reddit? If that cat really is stuck don’t wait for the fkn electric company, get a fkn ladder and get the cat. Or get a blanket under the pole and prod the cat until it jumps. No one has been doing anything about that cat for 5 days, wtf?? None of this makes any sense

      Have you not read the article? People tried, ladders don’t reach, firefighters need Xcel to turn off power.

      Edit: Kitty was saved!

      Maybe it’s weird that the cat didn’t try jumping down but this situation is not that rare. I’ve seen a workplace where a cat was stuck in one of those semi-floors between windows and when asked the employees were like, oh yeah, she’s been there a few days.
