A woman's pet cat has been found alive, after being buried for 26 days beneath debris from a fire.
Sandy LaPierre says she assumed 1-year-old Smoka had died from the August 10 fire in Franklin, Ohio. 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 on September 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. Smoka has some difficulty walking, she added, but otherwise seems OK.
