Urinating Cat Causes Smoke
One western Pennsylvania fire department learned that there’s not necessarily fire wherever there’s smoke. New Castle’s assistant fire chief Jim Donston said firefighters were called when an electrical outlet on a floor was smoking, only to find the family’s cat urinated into the outlet. Donston says a Columbia Gas worker was at the house checking for a possible leak when he noticed the smoking outlet and called the fire department last Wednesday. Donston says firefighters “found the receptacle wet from cat urine” and shut off the electrical supply to that circuit.
