Cat trapped in a tree for several days rescued by Portage firefighters

PORTAGE, Mich. (WOOD) — Portage firefighters on Friday rescued a cat that had been hanging from a tree for days.

AND post The Department of Public Safety’s Facebook page said the woman went to the Portage Department of Public Safety fire station to see if anyone could help rescue her cat, which had been stuck in a tree since Monday.

The crew approached the tree and used a ladder to climb up and rescue the cat, which was approximately 30 feet above the ground.

“Contrary to popular belief, it’s not every day that we manage to save a cat from a tree,” the post said.
