LAKE WORTH, Fla. (NBC) -- A Florida family's Golden Retriever is being called a canine hero, while the family's cat should probably be sent to the "dog house."
Bubba, the retriever, started barking when flames erupted inside the Lake Worth duplex just before midnight.
It started in the front portion of the home, where Saundra Frazer had fallen asleep.
Charles McCauley, who lives in the back of the home with his girlfriend, also heard the barking and came running into the front room where he saw Saundra trying to extinguish the flames with a blanket.

“The occupants believe the fire may have started when the family cat knocked over a burning candle.”
Burning candles left unattended = not a good idea, cat or not.

How can anyone hate cats?
To: WestwardHo
There is absolutely no proof that the cat started it. The article says it started from a candle that the cat MAY have knocked over. Or maybe the dog, in true John Kerry fashion, knocked over the candle and started the fire, just so he could be seen as the hero.

She fell asleep with a burning candle, but it’s the cats fault?

Well to be fair the human(s) left a candle burning. Not a very smart thing to do. As far as it being knocked over, could it have been the work of “Viking Kitties’’?
