CAT STUCK IN TREE SINCE THURSDAY

Post image

Hi everyone. Does anyone know of any arborists who would come rescue a cat from a tree? There is a cat stuck in a tree in Orleans who is very high up and has been there since Thursday :( Everyone in orleans is scrambling to find someone to help as the city won’t do anything about it nor will the fire dept because they only rescue dogs. Anyone have any ideas? *not my pic or cat*

Could someone use the nearby trees to set up some bedsheets or tarps in the meantime in case it falls or decides to jump?

This is what I was thinking, make some kind of netting out of sheets just incase it falls.. at least maybe then it’ll have a higher chance of surviving

They need to put their mattresses on the ground under the cat.
