It's your cat. Yeah. My name's Dwayne. Hi, Dwayne. My daughter said she called you, too. Yeah, she did. We're all wet now. Jack. Jack. Pleasure. Jack. Um, what's your cat's name? Henry. Henry. And Henry's 10 years old. Yeah. Normally, under normal circumstances, I would not go after a cat that hasn't been in a tree for at minimum 24 to 48 hours because most cats tired. No. Most cats will climb down on their own within the first 48 hours. But since Henry is not an outdoor cat, he's indoor all the time and he slipped out. He may not even know where home is if he were to come down at night. Something like that. That's what I was going to stay out here all night if I had to. Oh, bless your heart. I could. Yeah, I know. And that's why I came to today because Thank you so much because Henry is uh he might not know where home is. But I do want to give you some warnings that Henry could jump. Okay? He could run from me cuz it's much more likely for a cat that's been in a tree for only a few hours. They're way more likely to run from me or to and sometimes they will jump because their fear of me is greater than their fear of jumping. Okay? And usually after a couple of days they if they're still up there usually they climb down but if they're still up there after a couple of days they were are more accepting of help from a stranger. Okay. But uh I'm going out of town tomorrow morning. So I'm coming here to help you guys and help help Henry out tonight and we'll see what happens. Okay. Um I appreciate but I want you to know that he could jump out of the tree. I'm not going to try to scare him out of the tree but he may he may jump. Okay. Hey, Henry. It's okay, buddy. Henry, he's growling. Henry, it's okay, buddy. It's okay, Henry. It's okay, buddy. It's okay, Henry. He's going up. Yeah, he has. Henry, it's okay. Henry, kitty, kitty, kitty. Okay, be quiet. Is that where he was before? Yeah, it's too soon. This is why I us why I usually wait. [Music] It's okay, buddy. [Music] You really can't go much further. [Music] [Music] Hey, Henry. There he goes. Yeah, he's not going to let me get him. [Music] [Music] Woo! Woo! [Music] I got to get both of his front legs through that. I can't see if his front leg is through it or not. Is one of them through it? This won't hurt him. I'm not squeezing him. Okay. I just got to get him in the [Music] net. I got him. [Music] He's a big cat. What's he weigh? 19 20 lbs. Okay, let's get down without bumping him around too much. Yeah. Walk the pole back so it doesn't slam into the ground. Oh my gosh. You know, if you let him out, he probably go straight back up, wouldn't he? Yeah. You don't want to let him out outside. Okay. Can Let's take him in. I'll show I got to open the net. Henry did not want to see me. No, he tried. He actually did try to come down and then he almost fell because it was pouring down rain. Yeah, he was scared. How long ago did you get Henry? I would say seven years ago. Oh, so he's been living the happy indoor life for a long time. Once he got in, he did not want to go back out. Yeah. Then that f they were building over here and I think somebody let it somebody's and Oh, were they redoing this room here? Yeah, this is a room they were redoing. He wants Henry. It's okay, Henry. It's okay, Henry. Henry, you got to let me open the net, buddy. [Music] He is gone. Yep. He's out of here. He'll be all right though. Yeah, he'll be fine. I'm going to go clean my stuff up. Okay. What are we talking about money? I never asked for anything. Oh, but no. What would she do for you? I mean, it's a wonderful thing. Okay. Is it we decide how much we pay you or I just never I never ask for anything. You don't have to give me anything. But can we give you something? You if I'm I will say no at least twice and then Okay. How's that? Twice. Can we give you something? If you must. Okay. How much? How much would a must be? I don't know. I don't I don't ask for anything. I would never turn anyone away. That was pretty bad.
