An Alarming Cat
August 14th, 2009
This is the remarkable tale of Hugo, the cat who saved his neighbour from a burning building. Hugo to the Rescue!!
As engineer Andrew Williams slept a fire broke out at his home in Bracknell, Berkshire. However, due to a recent redecoration, his smoke alarms had been moved, meaning that he had nothing to wake him up.
If it wasn’t for Hugo, who came in through the cat-flap and started pawing at the father-of-two’s face, Mr Williams may not have woken up. Ever again.
“ The fire chief said that I had better buy the cat a big piece of fish because he saved my life,” said Andrew Williams, adding “I’m just so thankful to that little fella.”
It brings a whole new meaning to the term ‘Rescue Cat’.
