Cat Survives 26 Days Under Fire Debris
Cat Survives 26 Days Under Fire Debris

Updated: Thursday, 10 Sep 2009, 9:27 AM EDT

FRANKLIN, Ohio - A woman's pet cat has been found alive, buried beneath debris 26 days after an Ohio fire.

--------------------------------

A demolition company moved in to tear down what was left of the building the day after the fire. A crew from Stark Wrecking Co. came back Sept. 4 to clear away the rubble and found Smoka's head sticking out from under 16 feet of debris.

LaPierre says her female cat lost a lot of weight and has been gobbling down food to make up for it. She says Smoka has some difficulty walking but otherwise seems OK.

8. And the moral of the story is:
When you have a Smoka in da house, it might just catch fire and burn down.
