Dublin Fire Brigade used a special breathing apparatus to rescue a cat called 'Biscuit' from a house fire in Ballyfermot yesterday.
A budgie and a dog were also rescued - but didn't need oxygen - and no humans were injured.
The special 'pet oxygen-mask' is part of a trial with Village Vets which is currently being rolled out on nine fire appliances, in two districts.
Firefighters from Dolphins Barn located the cat who was unconscious.
Firefighter "Paw"amedic Carrick placed a pet oxygen mask on Biscuit and after 10 minutes, Biscuit was snuggling into it's owner.
Dublin Fire Brigade are trialling pet oxygen masks, which are on 9 fire appliances, in two districts.
A"meeow"zing result!
