I would be willing to bet that is how many children of firemen and firewomen get pets. I personally know of two examples.

Jaws are a little bit of overkill. "It sorta exploded".......you think?

The jaws are sorta like getting a new hammer......suddenly "everything" looks like a nail......

I applaud their efforts, but a small rotary cutting tool with water cooling and padding to protect kitten and its hearing may have worked just as well and safer. Then again, a vet might have used some glycerin and just pushed & accomplished the job. If it got it's head in there, it should be able to get its head out with a little help and lube......

Sorry, just my opinion.....All is well that ends well........
