Fortunately I have no idea what BSE is so I cannot be afraid.

Fortunately, I know what BSE is.

Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy

Better known (in the USA, at least) as Mad Cow Disease.

Fortunately, you can spot mad cows and that's when they start climbing trees.

Fortunately, cows come down again by themselves, unlike kittens which we have to go get, in the proces suffering scratches and bites.

Unfortunately, you missed the slingshot hanging from the tree and the sign that read "If cat gets stuck in tree shoot down cat".

Unfortunately (for the cat), missing the slingshot meant the cat stayed in the tree for 3 weeks until it realized the world does NOT, in fact, revolve around it and jumped down on its own (stupid cat).

Fortunately, the cat realized he was stupid and decided to go to school and get an education.
