I would never leave my pets, ever.

There aren't any hurricanes in Chicago, but sometimes we do get tornados. When I was 7 there was a tornado spotted near our house and the first thing my dad did was get everyone in the basement and then he ran back upstairs to get Taffy's cage.

My mom and I have talked about if there were a fire how I'm not allowed to go back in for any of my pets. I don't think I'd be able to live with the guilt if they were killed and I could have some how saved them.
