He got up there while chasing a squirrel, though Danner noted he was “never even close” to catching it.“Perhaps, he will not be so persistent, next time, in chasing squirrels,” wrote the fire department. They noted that Izzy was now safe and sound.Though firefighters are often associated with rescuing cats from trees, whether they’ll actually do so depends on the fire department and the circumstances. Last year, a cat named Hank in Washington, D.C., made headlines after being stuck in a 60-foot-tall tree for five days

In Hank’s case, the city fire department said they couldn’t help him. Ultimately, workers with the animal welfare nonprofit Humane Rescue Alliance were able to rig a contraption using ropes and a crate to get the cat down.“Cats have an amazing ability to climb up trees,” the Humane Rescue Alliance’s Dan D’Eramo told The Washington Post at the time, “but actually, they aren’t that good at climbing down.”RelatedAnimalsDogs PetsFat Boy The Cat Finally Rescued After 9 Days Atop Power PoleFirefighter Brings Home Cat Rescued From Devastating Animal Shelter Blaze'Panther' The Cat Finally Rescued After Days-Long Stay Atop 36-Foot Utility Pole
