"Without the ability to move, without air and without sound. Darkness, dust and fear. He was saved because his owner knew exactly where the cat was supposed to be at the time of the strike. The emergency workers took him out from under the rubble of a concrete wall and ceiling in a clearly defined place," the Animal Rescue Group said.
