(WTVD)
HOLLY SPRINGS, N.C. — A family’s cat is being called a hero after a mother and two kids in Holly Springs were rushed to the hospital early Wednesday morning.

WTVD reported that paramedics were called to the family’s home about carbon monoxide poisoning.

The family left a car running in the garage overnight, and it was the cat who woke them up.

The town fire chief reported the woman and two kids were taken to the hospital. Their conditions are unknown at this time.

“My daughter woke us up and said the cat is making funny noises and then she passed out,” the woman’s husband said.

The cat is probably the one who left the car running...

It might sound real stupid to leave a car running in the garage but on these new hybrids you can barely hear the gas motor running at all. And don't they cut on automatically to charge the batteries? (note: I used the NC phrase 'cut on')

Sounds like you need to invest in some cats.

Maybe Toyota should issue you one when you buy a Prius.

Then he'd own the best car make available ... as well as the best pet. A win-win! ;)

Let's not forget someone should have made a picture of the scene.
