Rescuing Bob. (Cat-Stuck-In-Tree-Rescue)

Rescuing 'Bob' from a cherry tree about 45 feet off of the ground in South Royalton, Vermont. He had been chased up the tree by a wild animal the day before and spent the night stuck up there, and been through a long rainstorm, before I could get to him. He was very frightened and untrusting of me from the beginning (growling/hissing) which made for a challenging rescue. I took upwards of 10 minutes to gently get in position close to him and attempted to calm him down before making my move. Due to some body mechanic challenges and learning curves, on my end, I ended up getting bit a couple of times on the back of my right hand before he was fully secured into the bag. We made it down safely, but I needed a course of antibiotics to prevent the possibility of a serious infection. In the end, everything worked out. Bob was a total sweetheart afterwards up in the house.
