ROTFL! I was in charge of transporting instruments for the AIMS Institute's collegium musicum in Graz, Austria. Coming back from Austria, landing in one of the NY airports (sorry, don't remember which), I tugged my strap-on wheeled dolly with four instrument cases atop it across an eight-lane street separating the airport terminal from the parking area... and what happened to me was a lot like what that cat experienced. All instruments were intact, as was I, but I can tell you that every auto horn in NYC works fine, because every driver was testing his/her horn on me when that pile of instruments toppled!

Wow, glad you can laugh in hindsight and I hope someone came to assist you with the heap of horns.
It's so frustrating when things come unbalanced and undone just when you have it just right....
"I hope someone came to assist you with the heap of horns."
Nope. NYC, remember...
Shoulda sat in the street and broken out in a solo performance...
