The cat is down! Thanks to almost all of you for your suggestions.

slodave....Thank you for the offer. You would have been my next choice. I look foreward to meeting you sometime.

Yay! I've got two felines of my own and although they have a way of getting into trouble, they've (thankfully) never gotten stuck up a tree like that (yet, knock wood).

Gawd, how I LOVE a happy ending! Our cats are happy to know that a fellow feline is now safe. Aren't arborists something? We had a danger tree close to the house that needed to come down from the top a couple of years ago. I knew one could help you...

Hurray!
I had my cat up a REDWOOD tree in my backyard... I come home and my stupid neighbor is in the backyard with a hose and says "she won't come down" I restrain myself and say "if I were spraying you with a hose would you come to me?"
So he puts away the hose and I go inside and open a can of cat food... place it at the bottom of the tree... go inside, turn on TV, and proceed to pound beers.

When it came time to go to bed cat was still up the tree howling.
Drunk and pissed off I put on gloves and a jacket... climbed up the wet tree in the dark (about 20 feet but it felt like 40) fortunately the cat was glad to see me so she didn't go up any further... grabbed (Siamese) cat... attached to shoulder... climbed back down and went to bed... much to neighbors amazement.

Kids don't try this at home!

And you dog lover don't tell me you wouldn't run into a burning house to save your dog.

How do you think I got to be an OLD Pansy? Not by falling out of 40' trees, that's for sure...
