Cats climb trees for a number of reasons.
They are vulnerable to attacks from larger animals, such as dogs or even other cats.
- A tree often provides a safe hiding place, particularly from any annoyed canine that happens to be passing.
- In the wild, cats climb up trees to give them a resting or napping place that is out of predators’ range. It also helps disguise their presence, which can prevent any prey from noticing that there is a cat in the vicinity.
- Cats often climb trees to get a better view of their surroundings, to help them see any potential dangers or potential prey.
- Sometimes, cats climb trees in response to noticing the inhabitants of upper branches: birds and squirrels.
- Frequently, a cat will be a little too excited by the possibility of a free-range meal and climb to precarious heights in pursuit of a tasty meal. Click here for more information.
Why Do Cats Climb Trees And Won’t Come Down ? 
A cat usually climbs a tree for one of two or three reasons: it’s chasing something (like a squirrel), it’s running away from something (like a dog), or perhaps it just wants to see what’s up there. Okay, so Kitty is way-high-up in a tree, the danger (or the fun or the mystery) is gone, and it’s time to come down. Why doesn’t the come down on its own? For more information on why a cat can not climb down .
A cat’s claws are designed for climbing up. A cat is not a squirrel; squirrels can climb up, down, and sideways, always headfirst, no problem. But a cat must climb with its head up to avoid falling, and once up, the only way down is to back down.
