A pair of superheroes responded to a house fire in Milton, West Virginia, even before the firefighters arrived.
Batman and Captain America, or John Buckland and Troy Marcum -- were both in costume at an event at the nearby American Legion Post. They were teaching positive lessons to children, but the lesson became real life. When they saw smoke, the two super heroes sprang into action, rushing towards the flames to see if anyone was inside.

"He (Captain America) breaks out the window," Buckland said. "The smokes lets out and as I can start to see I reach down and grab something furry!"
While the home owners were out of town, their cat couldn't get out and had to be resuscitated by Batman.
Buckland was a firefighter before his career as the Caped Crusader. The cat was not initially happy about being rescued, and even hissed at Batman. But bystanders were impressed. Link -via Daily of the Day
