Photograph was edited for publication purposes Photograph article dated March 7, 1962 reads, "There's a Canoga Park woman who believes that if you can put an astronaut into space you ought to be able to get a cat down from a tree. But it took Mrs. Alice Laudon and her neighbors four sleepless nights and a Van Nuys tree specialist to rescue 6-year-old Lambert. And the yellow and white cat didn't even say thank you. He just gulped a saucer of milk and went to sleep." Pictured is Laudon with furry Lambert.
