Gave me a bit of a shock the other night, heard a strange noise directly overhead...and forgive me in giving Fenix flashlights a plug : )

Yep - stupid feline got stuck in the tree. Contrary to popular lore, the Fire brigade will NOT rescue stuck kittys : (

One hundred dollars to an Arborist...

I could have bought a nice new Fenix for that! LOL

They rescued mine from my chimney. I called the RSPCA and they called the fire brigade. My neighbour went and put her makeup on when she knew they were coming. Four GORGEOUS firemen turned up and blocked the street with their fire engine, to the delight of the two small boys over the road. The firemen had to take their ladder through next door’s house because of the lack of space in the tunnel back on my house. One fireman went up and coaxed the cat down, giving her a kiss in the process and calling her little love (he was a cat owner). They wont come out if they have fires to go to though. And an RSPCA person has to have assssed the situation and remains till the cat is rescued.

It’s clearly an animal kind of night! I had three deer in the field judging my lack of elegance and grace...! 😂

Fire Brigade wouldn't go up there but Officer Tackleberry from Police Academy fame would have got that cat out of the tree.

I was wondering if it maybe a mountain lion (cougar) which are known to creep into US cities...

Had a couple of ginger & white kittens, a brother & sister, some years ago which were great fun, had to rescue one which got it's head stuck in a plastic watering can and trying to get it off..😂

Have had a rescue cat for a few years now, a long haired tabby, which if we're not careful on where we stroke her, like approaching from behind,will bite! She's a lovely looking cat but a mini wildcat!😊
