I am so sorry about your fire. I know firsthand how devastating it can be.
In December 1994, my apartment caught fire due to the neighbors upstairs (long story) and at the time I had three kitties. A lady from across the complex who I'd only talked to maybe 3 times in the year and a half we'd both lived there came into my burning apt. building and rescued my two youngest kitties... then came back looking for me and the oldest kitty!
It's a scary thing to happen - even worse when you have kids of any kind to worry about!
Thank goodness you're all alright.

Oh WOW :eek: That had to be so scary for you and your furbabies. Thank god you and you kitties are okay.

Thank you, Kirsten and Scooter's Mom and KittyGurl. Yes, I am so grateful that we came out of this so well. Scooter's Mom, did the neighbor find your oldest cat? I hope so much that you both got out okay, after the two younger kitties were rescued. Kirsten, long story on how this started, I'll tell that one later when I have more energy..
I still have loads of stuff to put away and/or reorganize, I still can't put the rest of the kitchen stuff back until after the painters finish, which they are supposed to be coming NEXT TUESDAY to do (holiday Monday in USA), and I need to move more stuff out of the way so they have a wider pathway to the kitchenette. And there's still a huge cleanup. Most of this I have to do myself and pay for myself.. part of the long story I'll go into later..
I let the kitties out in the living room this evening for a while. Poppy made her usual leap from the top of the computer to her supervisory perch on top of the bookshelf.. then tried her usual leap down to the computer and then the table.. but since there is now all this stuff piled up on the table that still needs to be put away, she sent some crashing to the floor! They're back in the bedroom, where they all headed themselves after they took a quick look-around here and didn't like what they found.
Again, thanks everyone for all your good wishes and thankfulness on our behalf. We love you all!
Love,
Pat, Peony, Sydney, Poppy, Elmer, and Priscilla Angel

:( it's not a good feeling when you came home to fire! yes, most importantly you all are okay(!) but still am sorry this happened - it could have been much else worse.
I've had fire striked us twice (one at my apartment and at catsitter's house), also my apartment collapsed nearly in half last year. with all of these happenings, I now dread coming home and find it okay, especially when I'm out for the weekends.
I hope that won't happeen to you, or us again! or anyone else too. let us know if you need any grant cat toys, supplies, clothes or anything. ((((reassurance hugs and stritches)))) to everyone.
