Candace, wanted to thank you for posting the info and for chatting with me while I sat waiting and wondering at the church last night.

Maggie, I'm sorry I couldn't answer my phone when you called. At that time we were being give an update.

That's OK - just good to know you're all (physically) OK. Let me know if I can do anything.

Just checking PT since yesterday and saw this post! Gayle, I'm so glad that you and your babies are ok. Give yourselves time to calm down and you will be ok - you can see that you have all the love and support of the PT folks with you . . .

What a horrible ordeal to have to go thru, but thankfully, you and the kitties are all okay.

Sending good vibes your way.

And just a note - grills are not allowed on patios at any apartment or condo complexes around here - for that very reason.

I'm so glad you and your kitties are safe, Gayle. What a horrific experience - not knowing exactly what was going on.

Thanks everyone. Still trying to calm down. Watching the news for updates on the fire, the cause and what happens now. In about half an hour there should be a fire alarm test in my building. It was not working overnight so they had people walking the halls all night just in case. I expect the kitties to be bothered by the noise. They're skittish and clingy this morning. Both are napping in their favorite spots right now. Diego especially has been all over me this morning. After the alarm test I'm going to go to the basement and check out my truck, heard it got wet down there, and make sure all is ok. The stress is overwhelming, but I'm lucky, I still have my pets and a home. Some pets perished in building 23 yesterday and over 300 people are now homeless. The building will be torn down as it is too damaged to be fixed. I have random crying episodes this morning, I expect to have that happen most of today.

Thanks again to all of my wonderful pet talk family. Where some of my friends failed me yesterday you all were here and tremendously supportive. I hope this is the end of the drama in my life. I've had about enough!

you all!!!!

Gayle, I am so glad you are home and safe with your babies. I am in tears about the other pets that didn't make it and the other people who lost their homes.

I imagine it will take several days for you and the "kids" to settle down from this ordeal. So I am sending you hugs and the kitties pets from Cali.

Oh Gayle I had no idea that's where you were living. I'm so glad you are okay and your kitties are okay.
I was watching the whole thing on the news with shock and horror.
I am not far from you, so if you need anything don't hesitate to ask. I will PM you my number.
((hugs)) to you and your kitties.
