Employees of the Adams County Pet Rescue in Washington state answered an emergency call from an animal lover who saw a cat that was stranded in a tree at Othello's Lion's Park in Othello for five days on Thursday November 21.. A rescuer with the Adams County Pet Rescue used a ten foot ladder and climbed four feet up the tree to rescue the cat and bring down the cat who was wearing a collar but the collar did not have any identification. What will happen to the cat is not known at this time other than the cat was given food, drinks and a blanket to get warm after the rescue. Link is upi.com/2411732308737 via @upi

That's amazing that somebody rescued that kitty. That's a farming community. People don't value cats there as much as dogs. I hope kitty will be okay now.

I really hope the original owners get him back if they’re good pet owners.

I wonder why cats get stuck in trees. They jump down from fences and the like, but trees...?

I guess cats can climb up trees with ease but they get scared climbing down trees since they fear heights.

cat's being "stuck" somewhere is so funny to me. because from my experience - they usually can go down, but don't want to. my husband's cat once climbed up on the roof and she was meowing so loud, everyone could hear her. and as soon as he climbed up to get her, she started waking on the roof and got down. i hope someone takes the cat in

That is kind of odd that cats when they want to can climb down from a tree.
