A cat had been knocked down in the road. It had a broken leg and was bleeding. Was it ours? Did we want to call a vet? There are a lot of feral cats around and this one was now in our hedge. Still alive, but we reckoned it couldn&#8217;t survive. The men said we should kill it, put it out of its misery. None of us had the courage to dispatch the cat. But to our surprise, over the last few weeks\u00a0we&#8217;ve occasionally seen it running around on its three good legs, keeping out of our way, but clearly eating. It wasn&#8217;t until today that it decided to announce that it was under the beam and block floor! How did it survive for 4 days with no water or food? Don and Jan from Carpenter Oak levered up a block, the others made encouraging noises and up popped the cat. \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.easterdown.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/freedomRegained.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-626\" src=\"http:\/\/wordpress.easterdown.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/WhatIsUnderTheFloor.jpg\" alt=\"WhatIsUnderTheFloor\" width=\"692\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"http:\/\/wordpress.easterdown.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/WhatIsUnderTheFloor.jpg 793w, http:\/\/wordpress.easterdown.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/WhatIsUnderTheFloor-300x296.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 692px) 100vw, 692px\" \/><\/a>I don&#8217;t like cats very much.
