    Hired a cherry picker from the town 40kms away to rescue our kitten who had climbed a huge gum tree and couldn't make his way back down ... :D

    I share your pain. But the cat would have made it down by itself.

    @balwoges - I agree with your neighbour.

    An alternative would have been to apply to council for a permit to chop down the tree, citing an aborist's report, pay the fee, drive to town, hire a chainsaw and achieve the same result.

    By the time you receive the permit the cat would have come down (unless it got stuck in a fork of the tree). :rolleyes:

    True. They go too high when they're kittens. Cute.
