Typically when you think of a firefighter standing with his pet, society has us picturing a black-and-white dalmatian - but the Fire Department of New York (FDNY) is breaking that stereotype with their adorable kittens.

Carlow and Boogie the cats are the cutest members of the FDNY (sorry guys) and are taking the Internet by the storm with their own corresponding Instagram accounts.

Both felines are rescue cats but they hang out at different parts of the department (Carlow is from Ladder 13 and Boogie is from Ladder 24).

They may be small, but judging by their Instagrams it seems that these little guys are actually the ones running the show at the department.

Check out some of their priceless pics!

 The "feels like" temp is -9. Wake me up when spring comes.

All work and no play makes for a dull boogie. #firehouseismyplayground #makingkittiesjealous #livingthedream A photo posted by Boogie (@midtownboogiefdny) on Mar 5, 2015 at 5:06am PST

Well, I tried that swim move you guys use to get through tight spaces and it didn't go so well. #helpplease #imstuck A photo posted by Boogie (@midtownboogiefdny) on Jan 13, 2015 at 4:10pm PST
