The RSPCA should be able to help; they have long-handled grabbers with which they can get puss down. I'm sure I saw something on TV whereby they rescued a young cat from up a tall tree.

Will help - probably not

awww bless hope your friend gets him downxxx

Does the fire brigade do cats in trees there, BM? Some of ours here will do ....

Poor puss!

[Gumby Cat]

Yes, I would suggest the fire brigade, they're usually helpful and might be quicker off the mark than the RSPCA.

Whichever, I do hope puss gets down safely.

Uuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmm..........RSPCA.....:?

Let us know how you get on... otherwise it is the good old fashioned, trainers, jeans & thick t-shirt, cat carrier & ladder scenario.... by the way in general as you go up... they come down so have the owner on standby with food & a blankie for snuggles!!!

Good luck!!! :twisted:

[angieh]

Yes, Good Luck - I do hope puss is down soon.

I do hope that the little puss is rescued soon.

[dandysmom]

Any word, BM?

[EmmaG]

You could get an Arborist to get the cat down if it is a very high tree.

Good luck I hope the kitty comes down safetly

[CathyW]

salem is down. she manged to get the help of a tree surgeon. and he wouldnt take any payment. just the promise of a drink (think she pulled) the kittyy is comfy had little n often food and small amounts of water.
but thanks so much for your concern.

[calismum]

So pleased to hear he is down safe and sound.

Am I a horrible person because I laughed out loud when I read this? You conjured up a wonderful image for me........

[dandysmom]

Now that Salem's back down safely (again!!), I can post this quote which I hesitated to do before in case of sounding insensitive:

No one has ever found a cat skeleton in a tree......
