Motorway moggy

Sometimes it can feel like you’ve been on the motorway for an eternity – especially if there are traffic jams slowing you down.

However, usually we’re not actually on the highway for as long as we think and we can always pop into motorway services along the way for a break – unlike a cat that recently made some news reports.

The poor over-adventurous feline found its way up the 50 foot high concrete feet of an M4 road sign, but couldn’t get back down again.

It was stuck for 24 hours next to the busy motorway before traffic officers coaxed the cat back down to safety using a crane lift and some cat food.

Despite its ordeal, rescuers could tell that the cat was well looked after, and the RSPCA managed to return the moggy to its owners.

If I was that cat, I’d just stick to climbing onto the back of the sofa from now on.
