A CAT fell 34 floors from a Gold Coast penthouse and survived to see out the rest of his eight lives, its owner says.
Voodoo the seven-year-old manx has always had an affinity for heights and enjoys living life on the edge.

His owner Sheree Washington said he often teetered on the edge of the balcony, much to her horror, The Gold Coast Bulletin reports.

She and her husband Wayne first noticed Voodoo was missing about 9pm on Monday, after the couple had finished dinner.

"We searched high and low several times and he was nowhere to be found," said Mr Washington.

Yesterday morning, she made the journey downstairs, expecting to find her beloved cat's body at the base of the high rise.

Instead, she found Voodoo with nothing more than a few scratches.

"I just saw him lying under the bushes," she said.

"He was just crouched back in the corner."

Voodoo had fallen 34 floors and landed on a bush, Mrs Washington said, discounting any theory that he may have caught the elevator or walked down stairs.

Mrs Washington said there was no doubt in her mind the bush had saved his life.

Several branches were snapped, clearly indicating where Voodoo had landed.

Miraculously, Voodoo walked away from the incident with a bloodshot eye, a scratched ear, a cut mouth and a damaged paw.
