- To tell the truth, Louise, ... I don't know. Sorry for the apparent
- lack of pearls of wisdom, but I'm only going by experience. Last
- year, I tree-sat for my parents one night, and their 7-month old
- kitten, Chelsie, managed to get herself up in the tree and perched on
- one of the broad flat branches. How the tree didn't go over I'll
- never know, but my fiancee and I got her out once, only to have her go
- right back in. My mother says she's been back there again this
- Christmas. Best I can say is good luck, or spread a lot of bitter
- apple around. That kept her from chewing through all the house's
- electrical cords.
