I wasn't "saved" but I did get decent response the time I called.
I was watching TV with the wife and heard some banging out by the garbage cans. I figured the cats were getting into mischeif. I went out the back door to look and then a guy comes past the back corner of the house by the patio where I had just come out of the house. (DANGER DANGER WILL ROBINSON!!) I could tell he wasn't quite together and told him to leave or I would call the cops. He left. I went inside, locked the back door, and loaded the shotgun while calling 911. I stayed on the line with the operator and within just a few minutes an officer showed up. He talked to the guy who was out at the front of the house by now. He was drunk and trying to get home. The cop sent him on his way, talked to me a bit then made sure the drunk made it home.
I was happy with the response from 911/the police. I was even more happy I had the shotgun. If it was to happen again, I would take the shotgun or the pistol with me to check on the "cats".
