Firefighter Rescues Kitten Stuck in Tree

Occurred on February 1, 2021 / Sacramento, California, USA

Info from Licensor: "We were walking back to our home in Sacramento, CA when our local midtown fire engine stopped at an apartment complex directly in front of us. We stopped, wondering what was happening, when we heard the sad cries of a kitten. As we looked up, we saw her about 30 feet up a tree. Firefighters took two ladders up onto a roof and within a few minutes they realized the ladders wouldn't safely reach the kitten. The boom on the fire engine was engaged, and with the guidance of fireman Robert, reached the kitten stranded on the tree branch. Fireman Robert coaxed the kitten, letting her smell his hand. He gently grabbed her and slowly brought her down the boom ladder into her grateful owner's arms. We later found out that this sweet kitty was in the tree for over 24 hours. We were so impressed with the kindness and time that our local fireman gave to this sweet kitty."
