These Cats May Be The New 'Man's Best Friend' After Saving People's Lives

Most of us would do anything for our pets, so it's pretty amazing when our furry friends make a sacrifice for us! And while it's dogs that are often trained to be helpful and loyal, our feline family members are there for us, too! Just take a look at these incredible cats who saved their owners' lives...

1. Perche Pearl Camina

This Welsh kitty, and best friend to Alan Nott, started behaving oddly one day. Perche Pearl Camina kept dashing between the gas box and her human, but Alan figured she was begging for more food and ignored it.

In actuality, Perche Pearl Camina, who had a far more sensitive nose than Alan, was trying to alert him to the subtle smell of gas. She eventually passed out in front of the box, and that's when he noticed. They both made it out alive.

2. Lima

People described her as "the most timid, reclusive animal they'd ever seen," but Lima eventually found her courage. In 2010, her owner Cherry Woods was in her yard when two dogs viciously knocked her down.

Lima, who was lying in the nearby bushes, lept out, scratched one of the dogs in the face, and hissed at them. It gave Cherry's husband an opportunity to bring her inside, where everyone turned out to be safe.
