Treetop Rescue! How Brave Bella Spent 24 Days Alone Perched 70 feet Up

In an extraordinary display of resilience, a cat named Bella spent an astonishing 24 days perched high in a tree, turning what might have been a routine rescue into an unprecedented challenge.

The towering height – between 65 and 70 feet – proved daunting even for professional tree services, with two attempts failing and fifteen others declining to even try.

Throughout her ordeal, Bella’s survival hinged on a combination of human ingenuity and natural providence.

The initial rescuers, though unsuccessful in bringing her down, managed to leave food within her reach.

Nature played its part too, with rainfall providing essential hydration during her extended stay among the branches.

Bella’s devoted owners refused to give up.

In a creative attempt to reach their stranded pet, they fashioned an innovative feeding system using a fishing pole to hoist a cat carrier filled with food to their frightened feline. 

While Bella did venture into the carrier, an unfortunate snag prevented its descent, leaving both pet and carrier suspended in the canopy.

The mystery of Bella’s arboreal adventure was traced back to a coyote sighting near the property.

Though physically capable of descending, primal fear kept her rooted to her lofty perch, a stark reminder of how instinct can override ability.

“She was definitely a little skinny and the owners did plan to get her checked out as soon as possible,” explained Bella’s rescuer. 

“Helping this sweet kitty made the long drive feel not so long. We feel very happy to be able to get her down and reunite her with her family after 24 days in the tree.”

It was surely a wonderful moment when Bella was finally reunited with her family.
