On arrival units found a small kitchen fire, and the residents were reporting a total of 11 pets inside, 2 dogs and 9 cats. Truck 510's crew was able to quickly knock down on the fire. Engine 503 & Medic 514's crews made a quick search of the residence rescued all of the pets. At the time of the incident all pets were doing well. There were no injuries reported at the time of the incident. The cause of the fire was investigated by the Kenton County Arson Task Force.
