Brian....if l had been there, no l would'nt, love a man in uniform:o))

My sister and some neighbours were so chuffed with the firemen that they took cakes, biscuits and chocs to them this morning:o))
Sister has spoken to the local freebee newspaper, she'll let them have the photo's she took tomorrow:o))
My sister continued to have a frustrating day.....she rang someone to make sure they would be at a meeting on Sunday, he said "l doubt it l'm in Ireland" he'd forgotten so she has to arrange for someone else, then she lost her credit card, hunted everywhere, phoned the bank to cancel it, carried on with the house work, emptied the washing maching and out fell the card, it was in her jeans pocket, can't cancel the cancellation now so has to wait 10 days for a new one....dowwww!!!! luckily she still has a check book:o))

I hope you let the handsome young firemen go as well !

Hi Jude.

Thanks for the update. So glad moggy is safe and well, and none the worse for it's experience.

Gail

Well that's one less life he has - hope he doesn't go climbing again, unless he was scared up the tree by a dog or something

Hope his owner was pleased to see him and he got well fed.

Fanx everyone:o)) hope he went home!!

Pleased to hear the cat is down, hope he is ok. We had a cat which kept coming to us to be fed, and was rather thin, he did not have a collar, so we took him to the vet, and he had an identity chip in his neck. He lived fairly near to us, so we were able to take him back.
Liz

Glad puss is down safely Jude, well done the fire brigade.

Aw bless it..... and bless the Fire Brigade, too.... RSPCA were pretty useless with my tree bound mog, as well (not one of mine... but have seen it around since)

Love

Daff xxxxx

I am so pleased to hear that the cat is free from the tree............poor little blighter has had a rough time of it.

Well done to the crew that did the rescue .

Thanks for letting us know Jude : ))

I'm glad poor puss is free. poor thing must have been scared stiff.

Yeyyyy the cat was rescued about half hr ago and it took 3 hrs. Sister said the brigade were brilliant. RSPCA were useless. They had to cut 2 branches down and the 2nd one they attached a weight to it with the intentions of the branch being lowered for the cat to jump to the bext branch, but the branch snapped and the cat had to cling onto the trunk and then made his was down backwards and....... wooooosh he was gone.
No one knows who he belongs to. A neighbour had already said if he needs any vets treatment she would pay for it:o))anyway he's down thats the main thing and he should'nt be injured.

It turned out to be quite a good training session for the men, most were very young.

Morning.....Cat is still up the tree. Everyone in the road has been notified by my sister and a couple of other neighbours, between them all they have also contacted everyone they can think of who might do a rescue job, including Gloucester rescue service, they told the neighbours not to stand under the tree as it would only upset the cat more (very true). Unfortunately Rooks and Magpies are attacking it now. The Fireman yesterday said they would definately be there today, so FINGERS CROSSED!!!

Could'nt get back earlier. OH messed up the puter!!!!

The cat apparently can walk about on a branch, but the next branch down is 3 or 4 ft down and it won't attempt to try at the moment.
The firebrigade won't call out for 48 hrs, sister got abit muddled her hubby explained:o))

jude :o) x

l'm pmsl at the thought of the cat pinging on the trampoline and a spider trying to get into Daff's cleavage....it would never have been able to tell the tale to its littlens would it!!! LOL LOL sorry daff:o))))

So far no news, lets hope its good news!! Poor little mite up there for a 2nd night :o((

jude

Jude, they do make a lot of fuss when up a tree, but I have never known one stay up there. Lets hope it comes down before the fire brigade have to come out. I would think it would be looking for a drink first.

Gail and Daff, I know, I am still sniggering myself. I sometimes see her cat wandering across my garden and I want to tell it what a lucky escape it had....

Just licking stamps to put on new keyboard and will be inserting same into postbox tomorrow!!!!

Ooops that was me deleting duplicate message xx

Oh Helen!

Just read your added post. I am pmsl, at the thought of a bouncing cat.

The vision has made my day.

gailx

Helen in Kent.... you owe me a new keyboard, lolol... i have just splurted all my mega mouthful of Aussie red all over mine, lololol..... it'll never recover!!

*imagines poor Puss, trampolining into cyberspace*

Lolol

Love

Daff xxxxx

Hello Jude.

As a cat lover, any update on cat stuck in tree?

Gailx

Lol, my neighbour came round in a panic a couple of years back as her cat was up a very tall tree mewing piteously. ( What is it with cats??)

She wanted to know if I had a trampoline to put underneath in case the cat fell....just think of the cat pinging into space???!!!

Now, I love cats and have 2 cats of my own, and I told her to put food out, the cat would come down eventually by itself - which it did the next day. Needless to say, a few trees were chopped down shortly afterwards :((
