A house in Dresden is a total loss following a fire Monday afternoon.
The homeowners were not home when the fire started.
The homeowners’ cat, Renny, is missing, but their 11-year-old dog, Emmy, escaped, according to Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Mark Bridgham.
The cause of the fire is unknown at this time, according to Bridgham.
