Stray Cat Who Tumbles Onto Chiswick Flyover From Underneath Car Is Rescued

Occurred on May 12, 2025 / London, England, UK

Info from Licensor: "While driving at night along the busy M4 Chiswick Flyover in London, I witnessed a cat suddenly appear from beneath a moving car in front of me, tumbling onto the road. In a terrifying moment, it narrowly avoided being struck as it stumbled toward the adjacent live lane. I made an emergency stop just in front of the cat, aware that its options were grim: either leap from the high flyover into the traffic below or remain stranded in the fast-moving London traffic.

Determined to help, I temporarily blocked the lane to ensure the cat’s safety. I was able to gently coax it over to the barrier and bring it to safety. Once secured in my car, I drove it to a veterinary clinic. Thankfully, the cat sustained only cuts and is now recovering well.

Unfortunately, the cat isn’t microchipped, and no owner has come forward yet. If no one is identified, arrangements will be made to find the cat a safe and loving new home."
