For Rodney and Scottie Colvin, it's been a nerve-racking eight days. Their cat, Piper, scampered up a tree in the yard of their Summerville, South Carolina home on March 13. Efforts to coax the animal down failed. On March 20 would-be rescuers came to Piper's aid.
Then, something went terribly wrong - but, this time, all was OK in the end.
The cat fell nearly 80-feet, clipped a branch on the way down and then landed on its feet and ran away. Piper, no doubt, used up at least a couple of its feline nine lives but otherwise appeared to have survived the ordeal without serious injuries.
"I am scared to death but at least she's down and she's running so I know she's alive and thank you everybody for coming out," said Scottie Colvin.

"She's part of the family, she needs her eye looked at, it's really infected while she was up there," said Rodney. "She seems to be pretty strong right now. She's not favoring her ribs where she broke that limb when she fell down."
The next stop for Piper? The vet.
