My cat's gone mad!

My cat has gone bonkers, I don't know what to do. She has sat on a sticky label on some packaging, it being a time of year with a lot of packaging about, and she has a yellow sticky label stuck to her bum. It's obviously causing some distress, she's rushing about the front garden, sideways, backwards, forwards, jumping in the air etc, and won't come to me, or come in the house. I've tried food and toys, any suggestions? Wish I had a video camera, I'm sure it's worth £200 from Harry Hill.

She is obviously stressed about it....
The problem is to catch her. She's gone up a tree now....
Yes, I know, but how? Little horror can run faster than me! I'm just hoping she doesn't need a crap before I get to her, it could be really nasty.
I guess if she won't let you near her to take it off
(seriously why are people telling the OP to take it off the cat? obv haven't read the post) then just keep trying to coax her or get near her until it comes off itself, if she's prancing around then it may fall off or catch on something.
Mainly because if my animal was in distress I would not be here telling you all I would be trying to coax her down.
There's a limit to how much time you can devote to chasing a mental cat round the garden, I have work to do as well! She still hasn't come in, and as far as I can see still has a DHL lasbel stuck to her bum. I tried a tin of tuna, and cat treats, and I've sat out near her for an hour and a half, with the tin and the treats, and called her. I expect my neighbours think I'm mental too now.:mad:
Thanks kittycat, I do have a flap, but she has not yet learned to use it, she's quite young, been going outside for a couple of months, and is a right little madam about the flap. We have to let her in and out of the door:p I have the conservatory door open, and a duck down jacket on, LOL! It's freezing in here.
Has she reappeared yet Genghis? Expected the full huff when she does!
OMG. Are you for real? It's a sticky label. It's not as though the cat has been speared. :rolleyes:
Mabye the dog felt the string was cutting off it's circulation. There's a big difference in having something stuck to an animal's fur. :rolleyes:
What did you expect the OP to do, he's tried to catch the bloody animal with no joy, phone the RSPCA? It's a bit of label stuck to it's fur, its hardly a life or death situation.
So would I, but if that didn't work I'd rather ask for advice and potentially find a method more likely to work than waste even more time watching her in distress. I definitely think the OP cares about the cats feelings or they wouldn't be here.
I hope your cat is feeling better now! I know it's horrible.
