Answer:

a) According to Plan A, father would have reached the tree top with the help of the ladder. However, the ladder slipped and father fell on the ground. Then, he thought of Plan B. He swung himself on the branch. But, the branch broke and father again fell on the ground. Finally, he thought of Plan C. He thought of climbing the garden wall. However, even that did not work as planned. The moment the father reached the tree top, the cat jumped and touched the ground and was again out of father's reach.

b) At the Onset, the cat was stuck on the tree and father was confident to be able to drive it away. By the time the poem ended, the cat was free and the father got stuck in the tree.
