Thanks to Leo the Jack Russell, four baby kittens are alive after a fire broke out in their family's home. The four-legged hero stayed behind and refused to leave the newborn kittens. He protected them until help arrived.
With the family safe, firefighters rushed into the home to save the beloved pets. They found the dog and carried him — and the kittens — out just in time. They were able to save the animals and revive them all with oxygen.
"Leo wouldn't leave the kittens and it nearly cost him his life," Ken Brown of the Metropolitan Fire Brigade told the local news station.
Luckily thanks to Leo, the kittens haven't used up any of their nine lives. Please SHARE this incredible story with all your family and friends.
