The kitten’s remarkable salvation came from the blaze captured in its azure captivating eyes as it leapt onto the fire engine and was discovered at the station, the following day.

Smoke billowed around the kitten as it jumped onto a fire truck during a fiery truck incident, enduring a large fright for a second time. It was discovered at the station the next day, safe and sound.

Smoky the kitten, jammed on a fire truck during a tragic firefighting incident at the New York City Fire Department (FDNY), was stunned to discover a kitten covered in soot at the station on Wednesday, two days ago. Unbeknownst to them, the little one had hitched a ride on one of the rigs and made it back to the station.

On the prior day, FDNY firefighters responded to a massive warehouse fire in Red Hook (Brooklyn, NY). “They believed the kitten climbed into one of the rigs and made it back to the station,” Little Wanderers NYC shared with Love Meow.

“He was discovered the next day after his brush with mischief. What a brave kitten.”
