Cat Survives Night In the Fridge

November 28, 2007

SOUTH AFRICA – A Persian cat is doing well after spending a night in her owner's refrigerator over the weekend.

The owner says she got milk out at around 10 p.m. Saturday – but didn't open the refrigerator until around 8 a.m. the following day - that's when Zandalee popped out.

Irene Reed, a Persian cat breeder, says she closed the refrigerator door without realizing the feline was still inside. So the Persian spent 9 hours confined in the frigid box.

Reed says she calls Zandalee her miracle cat because she was the only one who survived from her litter. And it seems another of her lives were used during her ordeal in the ice box.

Reed owns 32 cats and says it's sometimes hard to tell when one is missing. After a quick visit to the vet, she was glad to learn Zandalee was not injured by the cold.
