VIDEO: Pyro and Manni are the names of two kittens being called little firefighters. The two barely survived after being trapped by a controlled burn in rural North Dakota. The kittens were born in a burn pile, and a couple weeks later, it was lit on fire. "I don't feel this was intentional, I think unfortunately, they were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.” said their foster mom, Dawn Barth. Thankfully, a photographer stopped to capture the controlled burn, and rescued them. "My first thought was,' I am going to have to watch this cat pass away.' That was my first thought." said photographer, Carlos Pacheco. He has been working on a project where he takes pictures of fires, and has never seen anything like it. Pacheco took pictures for about five minutes before he realized the two were inside. He said the sound of the fire was too loud to hear them meow.
