One of two cats missing since an Oct. 14 house explosion in Haymarket was found alive Friday.
After the amazing rescue of Brandy the dog six days after the gas explosion and fire, the families who lived there were also hoping for a miracle for their two cats.
The cats, Jaxson and Luna, belong to Jarrett Struniak and Maleah Fulbright, who lived in the basement of the house in the Piedmont community.Â

Firefighters originally believed that one dog and both cats died in the explosion, but on Oct. 21, Brandy the dog was discovered in the rubble by an insurance investigator who heard barking. Luna was found Friday and was taken to an emergency vet, where she was in stable condition.
Luna and Jaxson are missing following an Oct. 14 explosion in Haymarket.
Megan Schnapp, Brandy's owner, said earlier this week the families were still holding out hope that the two cats also somehow survived. Anyone in the Piedmont, Dominion Valley and adjacent neighborhoods are asked to be on the lookout for Jaxson.

Fire crews on Monday morning rescued a dog from the rubble of the Haymarket home that exploded last week -- and she is going to be fine.
