Sometimes a cat can be man's best friend

Cat alerts sleeping couple of house fire
The search is on for Baby.

The white, brown and gray tabby is credited with rescuing a couple by rousting them from sleep when fire broke out in their Wonder Lake home early Monday. But Baby disappeared after everyone escaped.
The cat uncharacteristically jumped on them as they slept on the couch, alerting them to the smoke-filled state of the house. The couple are expecting twins in a couple of months, so that's four human lives saved, plus their dog. I hope they find their cat; she's 13 and strictly and inside cat, and very much a heroine.
