Well, you can do like in old movies and call the fire department or you can just get a ladder and climb up to get the cat. The cat's not dumb... it probably won't fall if you're careful when you grab it.

Can a cat run down a tree?

Not really. A cat's claws are, of course, pointed backwards, so if the cat is head downwards, the claws give him very little control over his speed or direction; when he tries to set them into the tree bark, his own downward speed, aided by gravity, will prevent them from setting properly. While it may look like he is running down the tree, it is better to call it a slightly-controlled fall. Generally a cat coming down a tree, if he is head-first, will have his fore-limbs spread out wide and almost at right angles to his body, so that his claws, now aimed sideways, will have at least some grip on the tree.


What is the simile of the fog curled like a cat around the tree?

The simile compares the movement of the fog to that of a cat curling around a tree. It suggests that the fog is twisting and winding around the tree in a similar way that a cat would curl its body. It creates a vivid image of the fog's gentle and sinuous movement.

Why won't the cat in your tree come down?

Most cats will not come down from a tree simply because they cannot. Cats are skilled climbers, as their claws are designed for this purpose. What they lack, though, is any knowledge of how to get down. They can not run down the tree, as they could easily fall and injure themselves. They also are too small to wrap their limbs around the tree and scoot down it. It all depends on the cat, the tree, and the reason they got up there in the first place, but in most cases, this is why they just can't get down.
