"Britain's fearless steeplejack has met his match - a tomcat called Ginger."
Fred Dibnah attempts to rescue a stranded cat from the very top of a 160 foot chimney stack in Bolton.
“It’s stuck on there with bloody glue, I’m sure… and fear.”
A two day stand-off ensues after Fred's initial plan fails to work.
"If we leave it up there all night, it might get so bloody fed up and hungry that it might come down on its own."
