First he got the cat, then he got the girl. 16th out of 56 entries. I did not care for this theme. I almost didn't enter until this idea popped in my head. I don't want to make images of disasters and dramatic rescues nor really view most of them so apologies for not commenting on your entries.

This stood out for me, just lost a few brownie points by adding the girl. I'd have preferred a granny 🤣
