Getmeowtahere!

Duane Hook has a business in Ohio called getmeowtahere. He rescues cats who can't figure out how to get down from a tree. It's hard and dangerous work, but we are glad that some people are willing to do it. Sure, cats will often figure out how to get down on their own, but when your beloved pet has been up there for days, terrified and probably getting dehydrated, you do what you have to do. In this video, Hook is wearing a helmet camera to record the difficult rescue of Clio, who was way out on a spindly limb that might not hold Hook's weight. The last few inches are the hardest. We also learn what's involved in a typical tree rescue. This kind of work takes skills, dedication, and a real love for our feline friends. If you ever need this kind of help, and aren't in Ohio, you can consult an online directory of cat rescuers. (via Laughing Squid)
