A cat has been blamed for causing a fire that damaged a home in Seoul.
According to the Seoul Guro Fire Station and police, the fire started on the third floor of a five-story building at around 9:35 p.m. on Saturday.
The home owner, a woman surnamed Han, 31, was taken to hospital after inhaling toxic fumes. Firefighters extinguished the blaze before it spread to other parts of the building.
Authorities believe a cat started the fire by turning on a touch-screen electric stove.
