Weeks after a Florida condo building crashed to the ground, an unlikely survivor has emerged: Binx the cat, who has been reunited with its family.

A volunteer who had been feeding cats near the collapse site found the black cat wandering the area before bringing him to a Miami Beach rescue centre.

The wandering feline belongs to the Gonzalez family, who lived on the ninth floor of the Surfside building.

Angela Gonzalez and her 16-year-old daughter, Deven, were among those rescued from the wreckage early in the search for survivors.
Both mother and daughter were seriously injured when they fell from the 9th floor to the 5th floor of the building.

Angela’s husband and Deven's father, Edgar Gonzalez, remains unaccounted for.
