A mortified moggy stuck up a tree in a hilarious position has delighted pet lovers with its ‘embarrassed’ expression.
The adventurous cat managed to climb up the trunk and onto a branch before seemingly collapsing.
As if strapped into a rollercoaster, with its back legs and front legs either side of the branch, the feline hangs motionless with a wide-eyed look on its face, as reported by What’s The Jam.
