Don’t get picky about your cat waking you up at 3 in the morning — they could be trying to save your life!
The amazing black feline went from house cat to hero for saving all eight members of her family.
Luna was persistent about waking up her mom very early in the morning, and with good reason.
Luna kept on pawing at her mom’s until she woke up and saved her six children from a devastating fire.
“She was insistent, you’re getting up. I got up and walked out the bedroom door and got a few steps down the hallway and realized there were flames licking around the door frame into the kitchen,” said the mother-of-six.
After quickly realizing her family’s life was in danger, Emily woke up her children, who range in age from 7 months to 10 years old, and led them outside to safety.

Without Luna’s pawing and foot-biting, the mom believes her family may have never gotten out of the house.
Emily who was initially hesitant about adopting Luna said: “If she didn’t wake me up we may not have all gotten out. We’re really really blessed to have her”
Their house is now a charred remnant of what it once was, with the fire claiming almost all of the family’s personal possessions. But in the face of this destruction, the family just feels grateful that everyone, Luna included, got out unscathed.

As a reward for her brave pestering, Luna can look forward to a long life of fine dining.
“She will be on wet food for life. Wherever we go has to be a home that will let her go with us,” said her mom.
