Princess' Third Rescue

If this rescue looks familiar, it's because I rescued this sweet kitty in the same tree twice before.  Yes, this is Princess, the photogenic, three-year-old calico in Watson, Louisiana who has developed the habit of getting stuck in the Tallow tree in her own backyard. She didn't climb quite as high this time, but she was still just as stuck and spent one night in the tree before I arrived to rescue her. Just like before, she was happy to see me and easy to rescue. In this tree, I could not make a lap where she could step onto it, so I held a carrier up to her. She studied it thoroughly but saw no reason to go inside, so I placed a can of food in the back of the carrier, and then she had a good reason. She stepped inside, and I closed the door and took her back down.

In this Thanksgiving season, I'm sure she is thankful to be safe inside her home again, but I wouldn't be surprised if she was also planning her next adventure. As for me, I am thankful for the opportunity to rescue her again, and I am especially thankful to her human mom, Laura, and all the owners of cats I have ever rescued for trusting me with the safety of their cats. That is a huge honor of high value to me, so even though they all thank me for rescuing their cat, I also want to say "Thank you" for trusting me to do it.
