NOTTINGHAM, England — A heroic cat in the U.K. saved his owner’s life by pounding his paws on her chest to wake her up after she suffered a heart attack in her sleep. The incredible behavior reinforces prior research that shows pets not only show interest in helping their owners, but will make attempts to help them on their own.Sam Felstead, 42, was asleep when she was woken by her 7-year-old cat Billy at 4:30 a.m. in her Nottingham, England home. She realized she was unable to move her body and had a shooting pain down her right side, so called out to her mother for help. Felstead, a receptionist at Queen’s Medical Centre in Nottingham, was rushed to the hospital by her mother in the early hours of August 8.
