Cat In A TreeCat In A Tree
Monday, March 7, 2022
Just as crews backed into quarters from the woods fire, a resident of our district arrived at the station very upset about her cat. The resident had just moved into the area from Texas and her cat had gotten out of the house and climbed a tree. The resident was very concerned as the cat had been in the tree for over two days with no food. 85-8 and Ladder 85 responded to the residence in the Cave Colony subdivision. Crews arrived and confirmed the cat was still in the tree about 40 feet in the air. Chief Hopkins promptly dawned his PPE and scaled Ladder 85 rescuing the feline in no time flat. The cat was returned to its owner who was very appreciative. Station 85, "we still respond to house calls".
