Gypsy isn’t your average traveler – he’s a four-legged furry feline who values his freedom and relies on the kindness of his neighbors in Pheonix, Arizona, who leave food and water out for him on his travels. Gypsy’s coming and going, however, led to little worry when the feline disappeared over the weekend.
Gypsy got himself into a bit of trouble when he climbed an electricity pole and it turned out to be a lot harder to get back down than it was to climb up. The cat clung to the pole for three days, waiting for the right person to save him.
After getting himself stuck atop a power pole, it took three days for people to realise the cat was missing. Unable to figure out how to climb back down, the cat clung there waiting for help. For an hour and a half, thousands of people watched Gypsy through a live stream, as he dealt with his plight. The Phoenix Fire Department received so many calls that they released a statement on the Local News asking viewers to stop calling as their dispatcher was clogged. Eventually, a man with a ladder attempted a rescue, and took Gypsy securely under his arm before descending the ladder with care.
