We're all familiar with the image of a firefighter getting a stuck cat out of a tall tree, but Rockford firefighters had a different scenario to deal with Monday.
Sounds like a good idea to me and just common sense. The Illinois general assembly has passed legislation that would make leaving your pets outside in extreme cold or hot weather punishable by fines or even jail time.
As the saying goes "All creatures great and small, the Lord God made them all."
Some of those creatures aren't considered perfect but in this case they can be "paw-some".
Meet Monty the cat.
