'Baby' the cat saves Ill. couple from house fire

[Zomby Woof]

WONDER LAKE, Ill. – A couple in the northwestern Chicago suburb of Wonder Lake are searching for a 13-year-old house cat who probably saved their lives during a house fire. Josh Ornberg and Letitia Kovalovsky said their cat, "Baby," woke them early Monday morning as they slept on a couch in the living room. Ornberg said the house was starting to fill with smoke from a fire in the bedroom.

Ornberg called 911 after he could not put out the fire with a home extinguisher.

The couple, who are expecting twins in about two months, got out of the house safely, as did "Baby" and their dog, but "Baby" disappeared a short time later.

Ornberg said the gray, white and brown tabby is strictly an indoor cat, so he hopes she is found soon.
