2014:

A few winters ago, Fester went missing. After an extensive search, his family found him at the very top of a 70-foot tree. Hanging on to a precarious branch all day and night, Fester ignored efforts to coax him down for 4½ days! He had no food, no water and no shelter from the frigid cold and wind. Distraught over Fester’s plight and unable to reach him, fearing that he might fall at any moment, his owners called SAFER.

 

Although SAFER can trap a cat, we don’t climb trees.  SAFER contacted Beaver Tree Services.  Climbing expert Steve Nichols rushed to Fester’s aid, skillfully returning him to his owners. Warmed, comforted and thankfully no worse for wear, Fester ate a much-needed meal and had a good long drink of water. After attending to his personal needs and giving himself a thorough bath, Fester fell peacefully asleep in his own comfortable bed.

Over a decade later, our hero STEVE NICHOLS is Still rescuing cats from trees!  In August 2024, we called Steve for help.  A cat that did not appear to have an owner was stuck high in a tree.  But that didn’t matter to Steve.  He came right over and climbed the tree.  The cat continued to go higher, but Steve was persistent.  Eventually, the cat was able to jump off safely and run away.  Steve would not accept any payment from SAFER or the homeowner!  We cannot thank Steve enough for his prompt and amazing service.  Read about his earlier rescue of Fester (www.safercats.com/beaver-tree-service).  If you need tree service, please contact Steve Nichols, Beaver Tree Services or a cat rescue, Seabrook, NH (603-997-6872, stevenichols113@gmail.com).  He is One Terrific Guy!
