Cat summons help after owner suffers stroke

Trigger, a 13-year-old mixed-breed cat with a lot of Russian Blue in her, likes to spend the winter days in front of the living room window, moving slowly across the room as the sun makes its way across the sky.
But on the morning of Nov. 20, Trigger went for help as her 75-year-old owner, Erna Pratt, was suffering a stroke in her kitchen that left her unable to call for help.
“She literally saved my life,” Pratt said.
Pratt, who lives with her adult daughter, Mary, and her 14-year-old grandson was in the kitchen making herself toast when she dropped the butter knife. She bent over to pick it up but couldn’t stand back up. Pratt pulled herself back up using the sink for support. She was having a massive stroke.
“I tried to take a step and discovered my feet wouldn’t work,” Pratt said. “I couldn’t move my legs. I tried calling Mary. She was in her room asleep. I couldn’t make my voice loud enough.”
Trigger was nearby meowing.
“She has the cutest little meow,” Pratt said. “I said, ‘Yes, baby. Mom needs help. Can you go wake Mary up?’ ”
Trigger went down the hall, meowing loudly all the way. Pratt’s daughter called 911, and she was taken to Mercy Hospital Springfield.
