Rescuing Moon - (Cat-Stuck-In-Tree-Rescue)

Moon was stuck between 40 and 60 feet up in a large Hemlock tree in Elmore Vermont for at least 3 nights before his rescue. He endured several very cold nights and held up very well. Sweet kitty.

Hello Judson......Great Job! Have watched your other videos and got to give you a Huge THANKS FOR DOING THIS TO HELP ANIMALS. I started tree climbing in 2012. I get a few tree removal jobs a year now however so far never been asked to rescue an animal. Glad to see you wearing protective gear against the teeth and claws. Kind of curious how to got started .......was it tree climbing first ....then the rescue........or did the rescue present itself and you progressed from there to tree gear?? Big thumbs up on this one! I always enjoy watching. Thanks Judson.

Hi- Thanks for the kind words, and for checking out the video(s)! That's great you climb as well. I had been climbing for a couple of years before getting into the cat rescue. Probably the easiest thing you can do is make up a little info card and mail it off to your local animal shelters/police/fire departments. They'll be glad to have the name/number of a climber. It might be slow at first, but things will build, and word of mouth will spread over time. Good luck!
