I thought that only happened in the movies...

We have a part time kitty.
Well, it's not ours, it's our neighbours and it only comes to visit when it gets stuck on our veranda and can't get down. It's a curious, up-to-no-good kitty who loves to climb stuff, but sucks at getting down again.

So when I see a huge fire ladder truck up our driveway when coming home from work, I don't panic. Turns out kitty had spent two days up in our neighbour's tree.
Getting the kitty down wasn't all that easy either, it was terrified and not at all interested in being plucked down by a stranger. But somehow the fireman snagged her and got her down safely.
Phew!
But somehow I don't think kitty is allowed outside for some time now.
