Here are five amazing stories of animals who survived and even thrived against all odds.

#1) Mickey the Boston terrier somehow traveled 1,100 miles away from his Kansas City, MO home. He disappeared from his back yard but four years later his humans got a call from an animal shelter in Billings, MT saying they had traced him through his microchip information. Mickey was in good shape other than some minor damage to his teeth and his apparent memory lapse of his own name. Forgetful or not, Mickey's folks were thrilled to have him home.

#2) Tinker Bell the Chihuahua weighed a measly six pounds, meaning that 70-mph gust of wind that swept her off her feet didn't have a hard time of it. Little Tink flew without the aid of any pixie dust and ended up about a mile away from her humans. A pet psychic was enlisted and pointed them in exactly the right direction - they found her two days later, dirty and quite hungry, but very happy to see her folks.

#3) A certain African gray parrot must have been a member of the "Bird Scouts" (or is that the "Boid Scouts"?) because he was definitely prepared. When he escaped from his cage, he was found, spent a night at a police station and then finally transferred to a vet near his home in Tokyo. Throughout the ordeal he was completely silent but once he reached the vet's office he promptly announced his name and address. Turns out his humans had spent two years preparing him for just such an event and he performed flawlessly.

#4) Myra Amado heard crying sounds in her backyard but she couldn't figure out where the sound was coming from. Several days later, she checked a hidden area near her shed and saw a teeny orange kitten's head peeking at her of of a PVC pipe. The 6-week-old critter was stuck inside the pipe so tightly that it took firefighters two hours and a dollop of vegetable oil to extricate her. Her rescuers named her Piper and quickly took her to a vet who took care of her broken paw and dehydration.

#5) Flushpuppy: There's a reason 4-year-olds shouldn't be left unsupervised with teeny puppies. Here's just one of them. Daniel Blair of Middlesex, England thought his muddy little one-week-old pup needed a bath. So he gave him one. In the toilet. You can guess where this is going. Yes, he flushed the itty bitty Cocker Spaniel down the loo. Amazingly, when a drainage company sent a camera down the pipes, they found the little pup alive. He was out and safe and sound in about four hours. Daniel showed great remorse and promised never to flush a creature down the toilet ever again. No guarantees about his sister's toys.
