Makeshift Fire Engine

Ok, now this joke is a little on the, well, it might cross the line. Not with me but with some of you. I happen to think it is hilarious, especially because of my absolute disdain of cats.


A firefighter was working on the engine outside the station when he noticed a little girl nearby in a little red wagon with little ladders hung off the sides and a garden hose tightly coiled in the middle.

The girl was wearing a firefighter's helmet. The wagon was being pulled by her dog and her cat.

The firefighter walked over to take a closer look. "That sure is a nice fire truck," the firefighter said with admiration.

"Thanks," the girl replied. The firefighter looked a little closer the fireman noticed the girl had tied the wagon to her dog's collar & to the cat's testicles.

"Little partner," the firefighter said, "I don't want to tell you how to run your rig, but if you were to tie that rope around the cat's collar, I think you could go faster."

The little girl replied thoughtfully, "You're probably right, but then I wouldn't have a siren."

Ok, since we are on the topic of cats and firemen, I thought you might shake your head at this one.

Man shoots at fireman for not getting cat from a tree.

Some guy in Arizona yesterday called the fire department reporting a fire at his house. Turns out there was no fire, but he wanted the fire department to get his cat down out of a tree. They got there and refused to rescue the cat, telling the owner to “wait until the cat gets hungry and comes down”. The man then went into his house and came out with a gun, shooting at the firemen. When later sentenced to five months in jail, the owner admitted to the judge that he (not the cat) “might have been drinking” at the time of the incident.

No kidding? Why do they think the cat went up the tree in the first place? He was trying to get away from this nut!
