Cat rescued from tree

Land owner Lisa Catherman said she tried for days to find someone to help. The East Prospect Fire Company offered, but firefighters couldn't get the ladder truck up the Lower Windsor Township farm lane.

Wike, who owns a tree service, put a 30-foot ladder against the tree, then used ropes to pull himself up another 30 feet to reach the kitty.
