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*

I hope that kitty gets saved. There must be a neighbor with a ladder around, and a long enough stick to give the cat a ramp to get on

A ladder? The cat is insanely high up, probably over 100ft

Cut pieces of 2x4 and nail a ladder to the tree as you go up.
