Mont Blanc, a 9-month-old cat in Australia, survived a 14-story fall from his high rise apartment in Melbourne:
9-month-old Mont Blanc encountered his brush with death as he roamed around his home on the 20th floor of an apartment block in Melbourne, Australia.
His owner, Tim Aupanno, decided to leave the balcony door slightly ajar before going to work so that the cat could use the bathroom while he was gone. But when he returned home, Mont Blanc had fallen from the balcony, plunging 14 stories and landing in a bush.

It was only when a neighbor on the 6th floor heard meowing coming from the ledge outside her apartment that the missing cat was finally located.
