Oregon firefighters aren’t only helping human victims of the California wildfires, they’re also working to help pets. The Oregon Office of State Fire Marshal posted on Facebook Wednesday saying the wildfires can displace and cause stress for pets, especially if their owners must move or leave them behind. A slideshow video shows a Washington County Strike Team firefighter who fed and cared for cats at night. He named the kitten on his shoulders “Brad.” Fire officials said about nine cats would follow the firefighters around and the firefighters took care of them.
