Cat up a tree

If you click on the pix you will get a bigger view.

Yesterday we hear the dogs barking like crazy, which usally doesnt happen until night when the wild critters come out, So Jessica runs out to investigate, I hear her laughing like crazy and go see whats up.

Its Butterscotch up a tree, now a tcat up a trees really isnt funny but seeing this cat up a small tree when he weights over 20lbs and the dogs sitting below mocking him was funny. You have to understand Butterscotch tho, he doesnt know hes that big I dont believe. Hes a "I dont care cat" when it comes to the dogs, the dogs try to get him to do the chase thing and Butterscotch just ignores them.

What I think happened was he was feeling frisky and climbed the tree and got stuck and of course one of the dogs saw this and wanted to join in on the action and tease the cat. Now that Butterscotch was up this tree that really was not a good climbing for cat of his size,he realizes this and gets scared. He was some what stuck between the 2 branches. So then he starts crying for help to get down. and all this time the wind is blowing a bit and the tree is swaying.
Finally with lots of talking to him, and him doing alot of crying, he finally trys to turn around, I really didnt think he was going to beable to do it. It was funny just watching him try to turn his big body in this very small space. At one point he was partally upside down on his back turning around but he did it but then was scared to come the rest of the way down for it was a straight down for him. His crying even got more expressive at this point, and Id sware he was telling me NO. He finally got low enought that I could reach up and grab his front paws and sorta pull him down to me. He was a very thankfull cat at the point. And as for the dogs they didnt get what they wanted and went on to doing other dog things. Hopefully next time Butterbutt as we nick name him will pick a better more fitting tree to climb.
