At just five months old, little Honey was gifted through Hannah’s Heart to a local family, where she is quite bonded to her loving dad, who has a luxurious grooming routine established with his precious baby girl- every night he sits her on his lap and brushes her until her coat shines and sparkles. Honey also rides shotgun and accompanies him wherever he goes, including work! Thanks to this awesome bond that has developed between her and her dad, little Honey is well tuned into her home environment and knows when something is amiss. 

Recently, little Honey woke up in a state of extreme distress, barking and whining to wake everyone up. Her dad got up to let her out but she was hesitant to leave through her regular way. She reluctantly returned back to the crate only to become frantic a short while later, barking and refusing to calm herself. When her father walked her through the kitchen, the only route she would take, he noticed that the gas on the cooking range was turned on, and had been on for several hours. The emergency teams were called, and the family made it out to safety. The emergency team leader told Honey’s dad that if they would have stayed inside for 90 more minutes, the whole family would have died in their sleep. Honey’s insistence on waking her father and alerting him to the silent danger in their home makes her this month’s HABIBI HERO! She saved three human lives, three cats and herself!
