    Three to four days?!!! Oh man! It's going to be a long night for him. Hopefully he smells the food you put out for him and finds his way down.

    We had a saying at my Fire Brigade "Ever seen a dead cat up a tree?" Nooooo.

    It will come down hon. Give it time and space.

    bahaha, love it! That's kinda my thought... if they can get up surely they can get down?

    According to google tree loppers do sometimes find cat skeletons in trees and also they often injure themselves (sometimes fatally) trying to get down especially if they have been there a day or two and they are tired and dehydrated.
    Judging by the sounds last night our visitor had a pretty hard time getting down - there was a lot of bell jingling and some little crashing noises

    I'm sure the cat is fine Onyx. It may have sounded worse than it was.

    We've had a few feral cats chased up trees over the years and you think that they look stuck, but once they feel safe they can make their way down. I reckon it will be gone by morning.

    It came down at about 3am. Not very gracefully judging by the sound of its little bell. I hope it wasn't hurt and that it is safely home with its humans now.

    I'm sure it would have been fine. I hope it found it's way back home too.
