Cat revived with pet oxygen mask after apartment fire Thursday evening

A cat is recovering following a fire Thursday evening in a Corydon area apartment complex.

At around 8:45 p.m. last night, a fire broke out in a four-storey apartment building in the 600 block of Mulvey Avenue.

Smoke was coming from the building when crews arrived, and an interior attack was launched, with the fire declared under control about 20 minutes later. 

Most occupants evacuated before crews arrived. However, some had to be rescued by firefighters.

One cat was rescued from the building and revived using a special oxygen mask made for animals. No other injuries were reported.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
