MAYFIELD, Ky. — A cat whose home was an office building leveled by tornadoes nine days ago has been found alive. The cat’s owner, Sonny Gibson, told The Associated Press he was standing in the rubble when he thought he heard a faint meow. After some searching, he and some other employees found the cat beneath the rubble.
The cat, Maddox, is nine years old and has been missing since the EF4 tornado hit Mayfield, Kentucky, WTVF reported. Gibson told WTVF the meow he heard in the rubble actually came while he was sitting near the area where his desk used to be.
