On Thursday, a video showed the cat looking out of the window of the blazing apartment, and then jumping out

The Chicago Fire Department had shared a video on Twitter on Thursday that showed a black cat taking a leap of faith from the fifth-floor window of an apartment unit in Englewood, which was engulfed in flames. Cat update. Hennessy the flying cat has not returned home yet. Neighbors near 65th and Lowe are out looking for the now famous feline. His owner says he is a house cat that did not go out. We will update if he is located.(Langford) Nine lives for a cat that jumped from fire at 65th and Lowe. Cat hit grass bounced and walked away! pic.twitter.com/LRBsjMta2Z Leave his catbox outside, they can smell from far away, it will help him gwt home. They are also tend to ask/meow for help around sunset. I am an animal rescuer. My advice - search up the bushes across the street. The cat could even climb up a tree or thick bushes.Calling may not be successful as many cats don't meow loudly, esp. an injured or a shocked cat. Use a strong searchlight after dark. Suggest going outside and calling at 2 am. All of my escapees have come home around that time. Also dirty litterbox outside in bushes and if any of family's clothes are not smoke-filled, put them outside so cat smells their scent. Cats don't usually go far. Tell them to look under cars too.. when my daughter's cat was leisurely sitting on a window ledge, her roommate accidentally closed the window and her cat couldn't come back in and hid under cars in front of the apartment until she found him the next day ???? My experience is cats don't go far. Also, this cat is most likely injured. @LaraBricker we need a pet detective in Chicago! This is the cat who jumped out of the 5th floor window of a building on fire ???? https://t.co/m92mT6GE4j They said he walked away, but shock is a hell of a drug. Hope he isn't seriously injured. https://t.co/k7DOBvfhtY The cat first looks out cautiously from the broken windows from where one can see smoke billowing out, takes stock of the height, then jumps and lands on all fours, before running away. However, the now famous feline, called Hennessy, has since not returned home. According to a tweet put out by the Chicago Fire Department yesterday, Hennessy's owner said the cat didn't go outside. Larry Langford, the director of the department, said that neighbours near 65th and Lowe were out looking for the cat. Langford was the one who captured Hennessy's jump. He had his camera while his team was trying to put out the fire.
