Neighbors saved two kittens and firefighters saved two more cats from a burning mobile home in Summerfield on Monday, officials said.
Just before 4 p.m., officials with Marion County Fire Rescue were sent to battle the blaze in the 17000 block of SE 96th Court.
A neighbor who called 911 reported seeing heavy smoke and flames coming from the home.
Firefighters said several neighbors broke open a window to save the two kittens.
Just after 4:05 p.m., another fire crew arrived to assist and said the flames were self-venting through the roof. By this time, the blaze had compromised the roof and the ceilings, and one ceiling fell onto firefighters, authorities said.
