Cats safe after North Side house fire
By Eva Ruth Moravec
A man and his four cats got out of a North Side home safely Tuesday morning, when a grease fire erupted in the kitchen, according to the San Antonio Fire Department.
Around 8:40 a.m., firefighters were called to a home in the 14000 block of Turtle Rock Street, where a small fire was reported, said Capt. Darryl Waltisperger. A man who lives in the home got out safely, but he feared that his four cats didn't, officials said. Firefighters said all of the felines were safe.
"All of those cats have either been accounted for or were seen running away from the house," Waltisperger said.
Flames caused an estimated $15,000 in damages to the single-story rock house. Waltisperger said grease fires are common but can be prevented.
"Don't leave things you're cooking unattended," he said. "Any little thing left unwatched can get out of control quickly."
