Lure cat down from tree? No, someone might sue

by Walter Olson on January 1, 2009

Brutis the cat in Phoenix, Ariz. is safe now, but not until after a bit of hard feeling with the neighbor whose property he’d wandered on to:

[the Humane Society] suggested [owner] Michael leave food and water at the base of the tree, something Michael said he couldn’t do because his police officer neighbor would not let him back on the property.

Michael said the officer told him he was concerned that if someone got hurt while trying to get the cat on his property, he would be liable.

“He said no because of insurance,” explained Michael.
