<P>I wonder how many would just laugh as you writhe in agony, knowing they could dial 9-1-1 and save your life if they wanted to, but they choose not to.</P><P> </P><P> </P>
This came down on the AP this morning and made me laugh...
Adopted Cat Alerts Owner of House Fire CLINTON, Iowa Tigger has impeccable timing. The cat alerted its Clinton owner, Carole Behr, to smoke early Tuesday morning, allowing Behr and her daughter just enough time to call 911 and escape from the a fire that destroyed much of their home.
Behr said the cat jumped on her and then sat until she woke up, to find it staring out the door of her bedroom.
Firefighters used a ladder to rescue them from a second-story window, Behr said.
Behr and her 15-year-old daughter, Connie Chapman, were not injured. Tigger, who jumped from the window, was also unharmed.
The family adopted the cat last year from the Humane Society.
"I told my daughter, 'See, you saved the cat and now the cat saved you,'" Behr said.
First off people with cats are weird. That being said I once had a cat that lived in my building. I named him Cleatus because that is just a good cat name. Then I found out that Cleatus was actually a girl. But I called her the same thing. Then I found out that her name wasn't Cleatus at all and she lived with the dude that was under me. I felt used for my milk. Much like I feel many women feel I'm sure. But only ones that don't take their meds after birth, like Brooke Sheilds.
I read this story in people magazine. The best part was that the owner stopped teaching the cat to dial 911 because he thought he might start doing it just to get treats.

Um, this is extremely funny to me.
As odd as it sounds, it's probably true...

The cause of the fire was under investigation.
My cat would just look at it as an opportunity to drink from the toilet while I was unable to move.
