GEORGE TOWN: Two cats tried to leap to safety from a burning unit on the 14th floor of a flat in Bukit Jambul here – but ended up dead, much to the heartbreak of their owner.

A third cat died after getting trapped in the living room and was believed to have suffocated in the incident at about 3.30pm.
