just incase any of you folks are wondering the fate of my dear kitty...I've found her...she sits in the same spot she must have been last night (no wonder we couldn't find her) about 50 feet high in a tree! it was about 9pm when I first called her and now 11am and she hasn't budged...she doesn't seem to be hurt however it doesn't seem as if she plans on moving any time soon...she's scared! and I don't blame her.

have called the animal hospital to see if they had any suggestions who to call for help...animal control is not open today and their other cleche' suggestion of the fire department led to a dead end (they only do that in cartoons) so I've put out a few calls to tree services to possibly find a proffessional tree climber to offer some assistance so far no return calls.

our only other alternative seems to be to wait til h gets home somewhere around 3pm as he does have a little experience climbing trees for work...fil however doesn't think h can do it...I just think fil doesn't want his son climbing the tree and even said he himself would pay someone else to do it.

and who says my life isn't exciting.

we are supposed to be heading away for a mini vaca this evening after h cuts the lawn...don't know if that will still happen with the kitty still up the tree...If she's not down before then I'll suggest h take the kids and I'll meet them there as soon as I can...no point in having them miss their vacation and h wouldn't just stay home if we didn't go anyway..he'd just take it as "found time" and go to work...yup he would...we were supposed to stay til fri but dd has a doc apt on fri so I suggested we come home thurs evening so as not to have to rescheudule and cause comotion with the upcoming begining of school...h then promptly planned to work on friday instead of enjoying the rest of the week with his family.

UGH!
