Smoke, Heat, and a Rescued Cat | Ottawa News
Description
Firefighters raced to a Lowertown apartment building yesterday afternoon after smoke billowed from the basement—flames hidden beneath stairs, thick haze making rescue tough. With temps soaring, crews battled heat while searching every unit; no humans inside, but they saved a smoke-dazed cat, gave it oxygen, and reunited it with its owner. Six people displaced. Fire under control by 5 p.m., with crews staying on watch as the heat wave lingers. A stark reminder: when disaster strikes, even pets need rescuing—and crews need every second to save lives.
