    Meet Carlow the firefighting cat. Well, not quite firefighting, you are more likely to find this rescued male moggie asleep on a pile of crew jackets, or asleep on a fire truck, or under one for that matter.

    Four-year-old Carlow lives in a firehouse in Yorkville, Manhattan after being found and adopted by firefighters of Engine 22, Ladder 13.

    He was an underfed stray kitten found hiding in a tyre at a mechanic?s shop when they found him.

    "The idea was that Carlow could help keep mice out of the firehouse. Ever since he's been here, we don't see many mice at all," comments a fire station spokesperson, who says they are 'Carlow's PR'.

    Mostly, found dozing, there is some excitement : a disgruntled Carlow is pictured being given a wash along with the comment: "Throwback nightmare to the time they tried to wash me".

    Lioness Defends her Cub From a Lion
    A lion cub had to be defended by his mum when he was harshly disciplined by his dad.

    The lioness slapped the 500lb bully across the face to warn him off after he snarled loudly at the two-month-old.

    The youngster had been sunbathing on the bed of a dried-up marsh in the Serengeti National Park, Tanzania, when he was disturbed by his dad.

    He showed his disapproval at being disturbed by snarling - but was quickly shown who was boss when his dad snarled back even louder.

    The mum, who had two other cubs nearby, came over to ensure things did not get out of hand and resorted to slapping the dad across the face.

    British photographer Elliott Neep, who captured the scene, said: "The young cub had been sunbathing with his mother, brother and sister when they were disturbed by their dad.

    "He came up and nuzzled them but the cub snarled and the dad took exception to it and dispensed his own form of discipline with a loud growl.

    "It was like he was telling him: 'Don't snarl at me.'

    "The mum came over and said 'keep it calm' but then slapped the dad with her claws out, leaving a scratch.

    "He retaliated and slapped back but kept his claws sheathed. It was extremely brave of her to stand up to him.

    "At just a couple of months old, the cub still needs the protection of its mother.

    "If she had not been there the dad would have probably whacked the...
