Reminds me of the cliche’ of calling the fire department to get a cat out of a tree.

I’ve never seen a cat skeleton up in a tree, apparently when they get thirsty enough they figure out how to get down on their own.

“I’ve never seen a cat skeleton up in a tree, apparently when they get thirsty enough they figure out how to get down on their own.”

We had a black and white cat our kids named Salt and Pepper. One winter day the cat went missing, everyone wondered where’s Salt and Pepper? We looked and looked. Finally I spotted it up a tree, but it didn’t respond. Got a ladder and discovered the cat was frozen solid. The dog had licked it a bunch and to get away it climbed a tree and couldn’t get down because it froze to the tree.

It would have been a skeleton if we had left it up in the tree long enough.
