New to Group have to tell my story

**mommakitty** · 09-14-2009, 05:51 PM

Well this weekend was a bad weekend. My little kitty got out she usually stay's inside well she climbed up a tree. OMG it was a big fir tree and there was no way I could get her down. I tried everything under the sun to get her down, Well needless to say she was up there for 2 days. I called so many people the fire dep, animal rescue ect. No one would do a thing, Finally I called a tree climber service a few of them were like noway don't have time while other's said 2 to 4 hundered to get her down. I did not have that much money and was so tired and upset to hear her crying and could not help or do anything for her.
After many phone calls I finally found a young man that came out and only charged me $75 I was so happy I said please come asap. My little one was so happy licked his nose put her in a back pack and we brought her in the house. She was kneeding on the limb when he got up to where she was.
What I found out was if anyone tells you she or he will come down on their own don't believe them. Maybe some might but as there are many who know how to get up but don't know how to get down more so the young ones. The worst thing in the world is to hear your kitty crying at night and you can't do anything about it. She is now in the house and will stay there! Robin

Welcome to Pet Talk, a good place this. I'm glad to read that all is well w/your kitty and that you're keeping indoors. It's a dangerous world out there for little ones, as you well know. We're looking forward to pix.

I couldn't imagine how heart breaking it was to hear her crying in the night and not be able to help her! That had to be terriable! Thanks God you found someone to go up and get her and I am betting she has learned her lesson well!!

Welcome to PT and like everyone else,...pictures please! We love pictures and stories here. This is the best cat sight on the web. We learn a lot and share a lot here.

Wow...what a story! I would have been horrified. So glad she is okay and safe inside. Welcome to PT. I am a major cat lover!

**MoonandBean** · 09-15-2009, 08:48 AM

So glad she is ok and welcome to PT! Around 5 years ago, my Bean climbed a tree and then hopped onto the roof of an adjacent house. When he didn't come home all night, I started calling for him first thing in the morning. I could hear a faint meow. We tracked his meows across a main road, down into a development, to the tree and then looked up. There he was. We had to get a ladder and bring him down. I HATE that he goes outside because anything can happen but at this point in his life, I can't make him stay in. ANY and ALL future cats of mine will be indoor only (like Moon)

We are glad that your little climber is alllright now!
I remember when there was a dead tree in the back and Bo Bo climbed up without claws and started crying.
I had to buy a Deli Chicken to get her back down!!!
Shes a smart Cat , certainly smarter than a Certain Cat Dad!

WoW what a story.. Oh I would have been so horrified.. So glad you got your baby down & she is safe indooors now.. Welcome to PT & enjoy all the talks & pics.. Yes pics please..

You mean that person charged you $75.00 to get this baby down.. How un-nerving on his part.. I will bet the fire dept would have done it for free..

**mommakitty** · 09-15-2009, 01:20 PM

Thank you all for your kind words, She is a inside cat but some way some how she got out. Needless to say she still wants to go to the door but I keep her back, Don't need to go through that again.
What I do and I know it is crazy I rescue cats that people don't want give them a home and care for them. I have about 16 wild cats that I feed every day and when I can I catch them get them fixed and set them free. Money is not always on my side so I can't keep up with the litters that they keep having. These two kitties were brought to me cause the lady did not want them so they have a home here.

Awww...bless you for helping them. It's hard to keep up on the spaying and neutering but as I'm sure you know...if you don't, you will end up with hundreds of cats in a very short timeframe. Can you get some assistance from local spay/neuter groups? They should be able to bring out some live traps and maybe help with the costs. Keep us updated.
