Long Island Man Follows Frantic Cries Only To Discover A Furry Soul Stranded On Top Of A Tree

John Debacker recently posted a video that took the internet by storm. He’s a familiar name in the world of cat rescue, always ready to go the extra mile for our beloved feline companions. 

Whenever someone runs into a situation too tricky to manage on their own—like a kitten trapped inside a wall – he’s the one they call for help.

Such was the case with the kitten from today’s story, who ended up in a dreadful situation and his desperate screams alarmed the neighbor next door.

The man hurried outside as soon as he heard the cries, but at first, there was no sign of the kitten. 

It didn’t take long for him to realize the desperate meows were coming from high above, and that’s when he knew it was time to call in a professional.

Perched over 40 feet high at the top of a tree, the tiny kitten sat trembling with fear. No one knew how he had managed to get up there, especially since he was barely three months old. 

Answering the man’s call for help, John Debacker arrived, prepared to do whatever it took to bring the little one to safety.

When John set up his ladder, he quickly saw it wasn’t tall enough. Even after climbing to the very top, the kitten remained just beyond his reach. 

Hoping to coax him down, John carried a bit of kitten food up with him, the scent of tuna wafting through the branches. 

But the little one was paralyzed with fear, unable to move, so John had to gently encourage him to take that brave step.

John spoke softly, calling to the kitten with a reassuring voice, promising that everything would be okay. 

The little one hesitated, too frightened to leap into his arms – and who could blame him? 

There was still a daunting 17-foot gap between them, and the kitten needed time to gather the courage to make a move.

At last, John’s gentle encouragement worked its magic. With one brave leap, the frightened kitten jumped straight into his hands, as if he finally trusted that everything would be okay. 

A wave of relief swept over John and the neighbours gathered below, who had been watching anxiously the whole time. The little one was safe at last, nestled snugly inside John’s sweater, finally free from danger.

John didn’t stop there, though – he made sure the kitten was placed in a loving foster home, where he would be cared for until his forever family came along. It’s hard not to call John a true hero for giving this tiny soul another shot at life. 

Hopefully, this adventurous kitten has learned his lesson and will keep his paws firmly on the ground from now on.
