Cats are amazing - they DO have 9 lives!
A woman's pet cat has been found alive, buried beneath debris 26 days after an Ohio fire.
Sandy LaPierre says she assumed 1-year-old Smoka had died from the Aug. 10 fire in Franklin, about 30 miles (48 kilometers) north of Cincinnati. The blaze broke out in a building housing a flower shop and LaPierre's second-floor apartment.
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 (nearly 5 meters) 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
Sept. 9: "I was stunned, shocked," the cat's owner said. "She is a miracle after staying there almost a month in the rubble." WLWT-TV's Karin Johnson reports.
