UPDATE: Kitty was rescued and is safe! This poor cat has been stuck for 5 days, and Xcel Energy is refusing to turn off electricity so the cat can be rescued (infosec.pub)

Maybe it's weird that the cat didn't try jumping down but this situation is not that rare. I've seen a workplace where a cat was stuck in one of those semi-floors between windows and when asked the employees were like, oh yeah, she's been there a few days.

I had a different situation. There was a raccoon stuck in an old tractor tire in our neighborhood, and nobody did anything for 3 straight days. I rescued him, eventually. He was cold, hungry, and scared, but didn't bite or hiss at me. I think he knew that I was helping him.
