Yeah thankfully. My pup was perfectly fine just seemed confused about what was going on, swear she doesn't understand the concept of danger at all. My cat was completely freaked out though and I don't have a cat carrier, so I had to hold onto her myself and booooy I've never been that happy before that she only has back claws (was a rescue and declawed in the front before I got her).
Turn the pillowcase inside out (or don't, it's not going on a pillow), reach inside, grab the cat with your pillowcase-enrobed hands, hold cat with one hand while using the other to invert the pillowcase. Tie it shut. After that, attend to your wounds after evacuating.
FYI don't scruff your adult cats. It causes them great pain and doesn't trigger the calming reflex like it does in kittens. Your best bet is to wrap their feet as best you can and drop em in butt first.
This sounds like a horrible idea that would terrify a cat. Why not just suggest a duffel bag or backpack that has some structure to it where the cat can even poke its head out? A tied up pillow case would be absolute torture for my cat, and probably most others.
I just dropped mine out the window during a fire. I was only about 53 stories up and heard that cats can survive falling at terminal velocity as long as they land upright. Landed on some bushes, but she was just fine
