That's good that the cat was saved. It's a shame that a few didn't survive.

Mouth To Meow-th: Firefighter Revives Cat
Feline Rescued From Burning Apartment

Posted: 7:39 pm CDT September 10, 2008

New Bedford, Mass. -- A lucky cat owes one of its nine lives to a Massachusetts firefighter who revived it with mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

The firefighter rescued the cat from a burning apartment Tuesday, telling The Standard Times of New Bedford that he saw immediately that it needed air. He began performing mouth-to-mouth on the animal as he carried it outside.

No humans were injured in the fire.

Two other cats died in the second-floor apartment, but two dogs there were saved with the help of oxygen from paramedics and animal rescue personnel. Pets on the other two floors, including a ferret and even some frogs on the first floor, were all saved.

Authorities said a man and woman whose last known address was the building that burned were arrested and charged with arson.

How do they know it was arson? What proof do they have? Nowhere in the
article does it say they had proper evidence to make an arrest.
