The Chesapeake Fire Department responded to a house fire on Sunset Drive Thursday morning. Crews were able to quickly douse the fire and the family of seven that lived there were all accounted for. There was, however, one missing cat.
Two firefighters "turned the house upside" down looking for the cat but could not find him. After assuming the worst, and about an hour had passed, "Orion" jumped onto the back of a couch in front of a picture window and coughed a few times. He was quickly taken out of the home and administered oxygen via a pet rescue mask. The pet mask was a gift from the Chesapeake Humane Society.
Chesapeake Fire Captain Steve Johnson said, "This has to be the toughest cat I have ever come across, or the smartest. We don't know where he hid, but it was obviously effective."

I love cats.
Got 2 and they are the best pets ever.
They must be clever if they can find a place to hide away from the fire.

Cats are great. If you love 'em, Wikipedia has some great info.

What pretty kitties psychocat! That grey and white one is gorgeous!

Did you ever notice that cannabis users seem to be particularly fond of cats? Almost every stoner I know has at least one cat.

Here's my Buddha K. AKA Sir Kay, K, KC, NewCat, Fatty McFatfat, Clumsy Motherfucker, and Sir Sleeps A Lot.

I love that cats are natural survivors, they are the most beautiful animals too.
Your guy reminds me of my Blackness (not very original I know) , he looks very contented Mrs. :D
Spike (the grey one) often gets called Crusty butt, his long fur can be a real problem :(
Tabster (yes thats his name) has got the nickname Flabster because he's getting just a little bit chunky ;) :D

Good karma to all you cat lovers out there. :thumbsup:
