We just got her out about an hour ago. I love my neighbor! (Not the same neighbor that has the tree that Kona was stuck in). I asked to borrow his 30-foot ladder this AM, as the 20 foot was not long enough. He immediately says, "let me get my shoes and help you." Turns out he was a Ranger in the Military in the Philippines, (Who knew) and is used to climbing whatever he needed to. The man is in his 50's, and just went for it like he was in his 20's. Anyway, Kona is in our arms again, and I cannot be more thrilled! Here is a few pics of the rescue, he loaned me his camera as mine is still at my parent's at the beach. He thinks she was up 40 + feet
1. Look right in the center, you can see her ears, just barely. The branches are much further apart then they appear.
2. My neighbor making his way up the tree standing on a 30-foot ladder, and then climbed the remainder of the way.
3. Pool net trying to get her to jump in ~ yeah right
4. The rescue
YEAH WHO!
