Depressive Cats Won't Jump

How did cats get down from trees before the fire service was around?

I doubt that there was an epidemic of cat corpses stranded in trees, all abandoned in oaky graves.

Does this suggest that cats would have engineered their own escape from their branchy prison?

Or does curiosity conclusively kill the cat?

Would an animal seek tree adventure so intently as to risk its own mortality?

If so is a cat in a tree engaging in a complex expression of cat consciousness? The cat cry of escapism, suicide?

How paradoxical then that in their display of angst they wont jump, only climb?

Inverted Suicide?


How inconvenient they have to do it 9 times...
