Then Polly was very lucky you happened to be visiting that day. It could've been so bad for her.
I did not live far from the shop. Shortly after i room this picture i went home and then got the call the shop was on fire. I rushed back to get her. I told the fire fighters they could help me, or watch me, but would have to arrest me to stop me from getting her out. I found her in this exact spot. (There was no fire inn my suites, only smoke)
Wow, I'm so glad you didn't live far and you got her out. Did you just have to call to her to get her down from there or did you have to climb up?
I had to climb the ladder I had out from when she was up there earlier. I had to park a block away from the shop, so I had to carry her all that way. Her claws were sunk into my chest, but I knew if I tried to adjust her any she would have jumped down and run off. I got to my truck, and then minutes later my wife showed up with a cat carrier. I keep a carrier in the shop now, just in case of an emergency.
You are an amazing cat parent. ๐ฅน
