It’s not quite a cat struck up a tree story – but it’s close.
A black cat was stuck at the top of a 12-metre-tall cactus tree in the Arizona Desert.
Locals report seeing it crouching on top of the plant for three days, weighing up its options.
In the end, the cat took the plunge – and probably a few needles on the way down – ut walked away without serious injury.
