OTOH, I can guarantee you the owner was standing outside screaming for his animals. It’s also not unheard of for a firefighter to risk his/her life to save them.
A couple of my friends had an apartment fire years ago. My friend was standing outside simply losing her shit, when a firefighter grabbed her, and yelled “Ma’am, is there anyone else in the apartment?”
She yelled “My cat! My cat!” and he said “Oh SHIT,” marched into the flaming apartment, and came out carrying a small, elderly pissed-off cat that had been peacefully hiding from the hubbub in the closet.
