INDIANAPOLIS -- All the humans are OK, but two dogs died and six cats are unaccounted for following a Wednesday morning house fire on Indianapolis' near-east side.
The fire broke out around 1 a.m., in the 300 block of N. Keystone Avenue.
The people living in the house got out OK, taking four newborn kittens with them.
Two dogs, named Rico and Cheyenne, died in the fire.
Seven cats were rescued by firefighters, who used pet oxygen masks to help them. Their names are Noah, Curious, Evie, Lazy, Willie, Mama and Tiny.
