“The animals had survived one of the most destructive fires in memory, finding comfort in each other in the doorway of a home,” a member of the fire departmentwrote on Facebook.

Upon the firefighters’ arrival, the team noticed burns on the animals and quickly ushered them to safety.

“Grass Valley firefighters found a dish and provided the two newfound friends with fresh water as other firefighters searched for a way to contain the pair for the SPCA; they were able to find an animal carrier,” the rescuers added.

The animals were then transported to the SPCA, where they were treated for their burns. Both are expected to make full recoveries from their injuries.
