Fire crews were called to an incident in a cattery in Pokesdown on Saturday evening.
Teams Christchurch and Westbourne were contacted just after 7.45pm and raced to the address in St James Square, where the fire was located in a small electrical fan in an outbuilding.
A spokesperson for the fire service said that two people were treated for smoke inhalation, but all the animals were unharmed.
