Kitties’ lives mattered to these Canadian firefighters.

Firefighters pulled out all the stops to save a British Columbia home and a few furry little occupants Saturday morning.
Flames and smoke were reportedly spewing from multiple points of the house – on the border of the Langley City and Township – when firefighters arrived at the recently renovated rancher-style home on 44th Street at about 10 a.m. this morning.
Firefighters were able to extinguish the blaze, but the damage inside was extensive, deputy fire chief Russ Jenkins told the Langley Advance.
There were no people home at the time of the blaze, but fire crews did discover a number of pets inside – including three baby kittens they were able to pull to safety, Jenkins said. He added that a few other pets did not make it.
Firefighters used the special pet oxygen masks on the three kittens, then called Langley Animal Protection Society staff who rushed the kittens to a vet.
Mountain View Veterinary Hospital sent word that Dr. Henderson has taken the kittens home with her and is tube feeding them. They are working along with the Langley Animal Protection Society (LAPS).
