Ducklings and a cat were rescued by local fire departments in the last few days. 

On Friday morning, Danbury firefighters were called to Barclay Commons to help a family of ducks that were stuck in a storm drain.  In total 8 baby ducks were rescued and returned to their mother.

On Saturday morning, Brookfield firefighters say they responded to one of the oldest calls in the book: a cat stuck in a tree.  It was decided the best way to help the cat was with Engine 1's ladder truck.  Firefighters successfully rescued the cat and he was turned over to a neighbor who agreed to bring him to the Brookfield Animal Hospital for potential identification.
