True Cat Story With a Happy Ending
A frightened feline that was lodged in a tall tree for a week, was finally hosed to safety with a high-pressure fire hose. Locals held an outstretched sheet and made the catch as the cat, soaked and hungry but unharmed, was hosed out of the tree by fire fighters last week in Yonkers, New York, USA.
'Everyone was cheering,' said artist and animal rescuer Greg Speirs, who was among about 50 people assembled beneath the willow tree. The cat had previously ignored people who banged cans of cat food and climbed ladders that proved to be just out of reach. It took two shots with the hose to do the trick. 'As soon as the moggie landed it jumped out and ran into the woods,' Speirs reported to the New York Daily News. 'Some kids helped us bring the cat back, and a man said he would adopt the cat right on the spot,' Speirs added. 'You can't come up with a nicer ending than that.

Animals in War: ?Miss Hap,? Korea - History Korean War Series - Animals Animals in War Cat Kitten Korea Korean War Mascot Series U.S. Marine Corps War - History By Zim
MISS HAP
Among all the inhumanity of war, this photo was taken in Korea, in 1953. The little kitten named Miss Hap was only two weeks old. She became an orphan because of war and was rescued by Marine Sergeant Frank Praytor. Her name was derived “because she was born at the wrong place at the wrong time.”

Thanks for sharing....they are beautiful. They look like they are well taken care of and loved....maybe even spoiled a little?.....so cute with the bib.
Here are two of my six:
This is Snicklefritz.....I call her Freakyfritz...she's my son's cat, but he lives in Ca and was between apartments and asked us to bring her back to Tx until he was settled...she's very squirmish, loud noises scare her, so she acts kinda freaky.
This is Dolly, we got from the shelter so I could get over my sadness over losing another cat...(long story)...she's a little devil, not afraid of any of the other cats, likes to taunt them and is really sweet and lovable.
