Then, the firefighters took matters into their own hands. They adopted her as their station mascot, giving her the name Ember.

After a health check at the vet, Ember was revealed to have slight frostbite on her ears but was otherwise healthy. She received her vaccinations, and she was later spayed.

"She had a bath and smells much better than when she showed up at our door," the fire department wrote.

Although Ember seemed like a great candidate for the fire department's station mascot, her rescuers believed she deserved more than what they could provide her.

"Steinbach does not have a full-time fire department, so the station is not continuously staffed," the department wrote. "A kitten like Ember needs a lot of love and attention, and unfortunately, the station can go days without someone being there."
