Yes, that one is much better!  (LOL) And I agree with all your other
reasons for not getting the FD to unstick a cat; I just think the
"have you ever seen a cat skeleton in a tree" response is sophomoric.

How about "sure; you're after the structure fire but before the
severed arm" or "ok, but you'll have to respond to the restaurant
smoke alarm while our truck is busy with your cat."  Yeah, I know;
sure way to get an RP complaint, but at least they're true.
