ABC News: Cat Starts House Fire, Dog Saves Owner


RHINE, Wis. Oct 16, 2006 (AP)— After a disabled woman's cat started a house fire, her specially trained dog rescued her by bringing a phone to call for help. Jamie Hanson, 49, received third-degree burns on her arm in the fire that killed both of her pets, Sheboygan County Sheriff's officials said Monday.

The fire started Sunday night when Hanson's cat knocked a candle onto a chair. Hanson's dog then brought her a phone, allowing her to call for help.

Hanson, who lost a leg in a car accident, told the dispatcher she was disabled but would try to leave the house, Lt. Chad Broeren said. Firefighters found her standing in the doorway as flames engulfed the home, he said.

What a strange story! Sad she lost her pets - Life sure is wierd!

I just heard that the dog took her her leg prosthesis - then went back into the house after the cat. Neither of the pets got out. Wow - she probably won't miss the cat much but probably wishes she still had the dog........... just a sad story!
