GATURRO: There’s always the old saying that we know cats can get down from trees because you never find cat bones in a tree. That being said, they back down so their claws have the necessary traction. We had a kitten once who climbed a tree in the back yard and cried piteously to be helped down. So my son (about 8 at the time) and I headed to the garage to get a ladder. We had no sooner gotten out of sight of the tree than a black and white streak of fur passed us at top speed and the kitten was waiting for us at the garage door.
