BERLIN, CT — Berlin firefighters handled a different kind of rescue Wednesday after a cat apparently slipped out through an open skylight and became stranded on a roof.
The Berlin Volunteer Fire Department said Truck 9 was called Sept. 2 for a report of a cat stuck on a roof.
The cat's owner believed the animal had sneaked outside overnight through an open skylight, according to the department.
Firefighters found the cat on a ledge near the roofline and safely removed it.
"Members were able to safely remove the feline from a ledge near the roofline, and she happily returned to the indoors," the department said.
No injuries were reported.
