Firefighters arrived to find a two-storey timber and concrete house ablaze and took about 20 minutes to extinguish the fire. Pattraluck Nantarat, 18, told police: “I have been living in the house with my 17-year-old brother. My cat woke me. “Then I discovered that a fire had started at the back of the house in a cupboard on the first floor. “There’s no doubt that the cat probably saved us.”Source: https://thethaiger.com/news/two-escape-injures-in-patong-house-fire-woken-up-by-cat-hero
