I would have put this in "Isolated Incidents", but I don't have a very high opinion of cats.
My heroes!

Do you think a shotgun would've been a better option?
That's a strange video. What's with the background music?

Never seen a dead cat in a tree, so why bother getting them down?
And if they were concerned about the cat being in the tree, wouldn't just using the fire hose be faster and safer?

I heard it was the A-Team, not firemen... and that they used machine guns, not a chainsaw:

Yeah, I always wondered why they bother. When it gets hungry, it'll come down.
