Seven cats and one dog died in a house fire in Billings on Monday, January 2, 2023.

Ed Guerrero, whose mother Soledad is the home owner, told MTN News that his 87-year old mom has dementia, and that two other occupants were inside the home and able to help get Soledad out safely.

Firefighters responded to a call at 8:55 a.m. of a structure fire at 3107 Boulder Avenue.

Billings Engine No. 3 arrived to see heavy smoke and flames inside the home. The fire took about 15 minutes to extinguish.

The cause of the fire is being investigated. There is no word yet on the amount of damage to the house.

We will update you if we get more information, including any donation drives to help the family.
