This guy built a mini Golden Gate Bridge to help his cat go to and from his room

As Reggie gets older, leaping to and from the window ledge is no longer a viable option.

When Reggie the cat suffered a fall while trying to jump from the garage into his owner’s room, Chris Burton knew something needed to change.

Fortunately for Reggie, 23-year-old Chris is a bit of a handyman, and he had the perfect solution to his ageing pet’s problems: a home-made Golden Gate Bridge.

Except this one is tiny and in England, not San Francisco.

Reggie was checked over by the vet before Chris set to work building his mog’s new toy, with Reg hanging around during the building process, which took five days.

The real Golden Gate Bridge spans almost two miles across the Golden Gate, a narrow stretch of water, and connects the city of San Francisco to Marin County, California.
