The Madeirense Voluntary Firefighters intervened this morning on Rua da Rochinha, in Funchal, to collect a cat that was injured.

The animal was rescued after a request for assistance alerted them to the situation of the injured feline. This type of occurrence is common in fire brigade operations, which are frequently called upon to help animals in dangerous or injured situations.
