How much does it cost to rescue a cat from the top of a power pole?
Don't ask BC Hydro — they admit they have no idea how much.
You may recall the story of kitty, a Princeton cat stuck up a BC Hydro pole for four days nearly two weeks ago.
Calls asking the cat be rescued were unsuccessful until media attention spurred action and BC Hydro sent two highly-specialized transmission crews with transmission trucks to Princeton from the Shuswap.
However, repeated requests asking the public utility for the final cost of rescuing kitty were not successful.
An email from BC Hydro responding to the request stated:
"I'm told that we aren't able to find the specific cost of the cat rescue because we wouldn't have tracked the cost separately. The cost is part of our regular 'trouble' costs — it's treated the same as costs associated with responding to specific power outages."
The tale of kitty went viral, even having its own hastag, #SavethePrincetonBCcat.
Central Okanagan-Similkameen-Nicola MP Dan Albas also got into the act, thanking BC Hydro crews in the House of Commons.
