On Friday, an event took place in Tirana that I can't exaggerate to say has the power of an epochal division in Albania. In a country where the animal is regularly abused and killed just as regularly, the reversal occurred. I happened to witness an action that, if I didn't film it, would be believable. A squadron of firefighters rescued a cat stuck in a tree. Yes, yes, you read that right. The fire truck with the 20-meter-long ladder, three firemen who dealt with it for 10 minutes, managed to catch the cat and put it on the ground. In an alley in front of the former "Diplomat 1" hotel, a lady called the alarmed number 193. "Hello, firefighter? My cat is stuck in a tree. I ask for your help!". Of course, this request, in the tradition of our society, is included in the crazy and annoying phone calls. The most common complaint in this country of ours is: The fireworks came late, that's why the disaster happened. But no. Firefighters took it very seriously. They turned on the car and the siren and in a few minutes they arrived at the scene. A truly rare event to be written in the service books and communiques of the day. The scene was almost surreal. A ladder that went up and up like an elevator and with it also one of the employees in uniform. The meowing cat seemed to be asking for help with its tongue. In just a few minutes, the cat broke away from the first firefighter, but not from the second. It fell into his hands and was miraculously saved. "Hero" received the thumbs up of the curious and mine as well with an unprepared footage. They reminded me of many events that I have covered as a journalist. How many live police operations with arrests and gunfights. But, like this had never happened to me. It's really a small event, but it shows so much. A cat was indeed saved, but this is exactly an epochal division for us Albanians. Our society has started to change. Not only does it no longer kill animals like it used to, it saves them, even with the fireman's ladder. Well done to the firefighters of Tirana! An era has ended and another has begun.
