"Bruno" needs help

Executive Summary

I received a call on a Sunday morning from Shannon who lives near Guntersville AL.  There was an unknown kitty stuck in a tree across the road from them; the kitty had been stuck all night and their rescue attempts had failed, could I help?  I packed up was at the house in about an hour.  When I exited the truck, I could hear the kitty crying from across the road.  I walked up to the tree and saw a pitiful kitten crying its heart out at about 25 feet. My typical strategy with unknown kitties is to scan for a microchip after the rescue - if no chip is found, then release the kitty so that it can makes it way home.  I knew this would not work here as the kitty was too young, so I pulled out my cellphone, called my wife, and told her that I would be bringing home a kitty!  The rescue was trivial, as the kitty went to a lower union at 20 ft after I set my rope and was desperate for help. After an easy grab-N-bag, I descended and put the kitty in a crate that I had in my truck. I talked with Shannon and Miranda about  \possible owners, but they said nobody  in the area had kitties.  We theorized that the kitty had probably been dumped. Once I got home, my wife and I set the kitty up in a spare bedroom, which he happily explored. The kitty did not have a microchip.  The next day I took the kitty to the Vet for initial shots and FIV test (negative). Other than a few fleas and ear mites, the kitty (intact male) was healthy and the Vet estimated his age as 4 months  based on teeth growth. I tentatively named him 'Bruno' after Shannon and Miranda's old dog who greeted me when I drove up.  Bruno stayed with us for a week, and has since moved on to a foster and possible adopter.
