I'm sure they have the ability to prioritise calls

Could be an advantage if they are already out on call means they habve

Rubbish.

Nope, he's right there, they are all dressed up
for the event when out rescuing a stupid cat.

They could just be dressed up all the time

Not practical with fire proof clothing.

So you're suggesting they put on fire proof clothing to rescue a cat just so they're ready for a fire that might happen? Instead of just putting on the clothing anyway?

if it would mean they could save lives quicker.

It wouldn't. It takes time to get to where the fire
is, run out the hoses etc. They don't tear up in the
fire engine and run inside as soon as it stope.

Please rewrite in English.

Otherwise they'd move the fire station to that place

All the cats don't end up stuck up the same tree.

There is an optimal place for the fire engines.

The reality is that the fire station stays where it was
originally built as more houses and building get built.

Stupid idea.

Not where the cat happens to be.

The difference is that the fire engine etc is already on the road.

Then leave it parked on a road.

It's also a bit of practice for new recruits. if you haventl the skills
to climb a ladder to rescue a cat you shouldn't be relied upon to
rescue humans.

Those skills are learned as a child.

No child learns how to get another child down a ladder over their
shoulder.

It's not that difficult.

Sure, but children don't learn that, even in the scouts etc.

I never got told how to use a ladder, yet I can. Funny that.
