Local CBS news affiliate THVTV was on the scene in a Louisville KY neighborhood when a small crowd standing at the foot of a tree got them to call the fire department for a kitten stuck 4 stories above the ground. Firefighters came and made the rescue.
Firefighters did not just come, however, they showed up in full force, with two fire trucks, more than 10 firefighters, a battalion chief and a two captains, all there to get the kitten to safety.
One firefighter told the news crew that kitten-up-tree rescues do not happen every day for the Louisville FD.
The news crew stayed to record the rescue and the following THV cclip shows what happened.
