CORAL SPRINGS, Fla. (AP) — A Florida family managed to escape a house fire, but the blaze left at least two pet cats and two birds dead.
The Sun Sentinel reports that the fire occurred Monday night in a Coral Springs neighborhood.
The Coral Springs-Parkland Fire Department responded to the fire that left the home’s interior completely charred and a hole in much of the roof. The front of a mini-van parked in the driveway melted from the heat.
Family members were hoping that three other cats got out of the house and ran away to safety.
