Cats arent the only pets that get stuck in trees.
Just ask the firefighters who rescued a Great Dane from a high bough in rural Louisville, Nebraska, late Saturday night.
Youre not going to believe this, one Plattsmouth firefighter said to another after receiving the call for help about 10:10 p.m. They said theres a 125-pound Great Dane stuck 20 feet up in a tree.
They werent the first in disbelief.

Let alone get herself stuck in a tree. I dunno if I am relieved or jealous.
