A GECKO and a guinea pig were given oxygen after an aquarium and cabinet caught fire at a property in Fitzalan Road in Bedale.
Crews from both Northallerton and Bedale attended this morning and found the animals needing help.
The aquarium was cracked and leaking and there was smoke damage to the ground and first floors.
Firefighters used breathing apparatus and a hose to put out the fire.
The cause was an electrical fault.
