INITIAL 1:50 p.m.
It’s an extremely unfortunate day for one black cat in Kelowna.
The feline is stuck method up a tree in a yard along Clifton Road. The Okanagan Humane Society has actually put out a desperate call for help to get the cat back on strong ground.
The society was gotten in touch with by the homeowner. It’s not their cat, however they’ve been attempting whatever they can think about to help the animal down, without success.
“He’s trying to coax the cat down any way he can. He built a little ramp up there to try to get him down, but he’s not coming down yet,” says OHS president Romany Runnalls.
The gentle society was contacted us to the scene today. “It’s baking. It’s the hottest days of Kelowna at this moment. He’s baking up there,” said Runnalls.
Arborists who have time this afternoon, or anybody else with the ideal equipment to climb the tree, are being asked to get in touch with the gentle society. You can get in touch with the OHS workplace or connect to Alex, the volunteer on the scene, at 416-844-5954.
