Pet Forum / Mammals / Rats / October 2003Fires in Southern California
Is everyone okay? I know at least a couple of you are in the Southern California area...... at least one in San Diego. I'm in San Diego myself and am getting ashes all over the place but luckily, no fires in my area as of yet. Does anyone need anything? Are your families and pets okay? Candace > Is everyone okay?

We're getting ash, but so far, are still too far away to get any hot embers in our area. :-\ > > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > Is everyone okay?

Candace It must be so scary for you right now... I just can't get over all the fires and how much devastation there is. Some people only had 5 minutes for evacuation... what do people do with their pets? -- Joanne Mom to 14 rats http://community.webshots.com/user/joanneb70 j-s.b@nospamsympatico.ca remove "no spam" Most shelters that have been set up are allowing pets. The news this morning has said that Petco and Petsmart have visited the shelter at Qualcomm Stadium to donate some pet supplies but they are asking for donations for more pet supplies, toothbrushes, toothpaste, etc. It is very devastating to see all these places burning on the news and know that, at some point, it could be close enough to us to cause us to evacuate.

Some people only had 5 minutes for evacuation... what do people do with their pets? ====== throw everything in the car, pets first, and speed away before your cars are burnt? thats what i would do... 4 cats, then the computers, then im gone (thank god all of my computers are notebooks...).

We're here in the San Diego area and we've made it through the night thankfully. We could see the fire about five miles away on a hillside last night moving towards us, but there haven't been any evacuations ordered for my area yet. Our car is packed and ready to go if we do have to leave. It looks like something after a nuclear war this morning though. The sky's glowing an orangish yellow and it's smoky. Very eerie. There's ash everywhere and my house smells like we've had a fire going in the fireplace for 2 days. But we're fine and I'm glad to hear everyone here is fine so far. Good luck and stay safe. Trisha I'm in Phoenix, AZ, just a few hours away by car. Is everyone managing OK in California, or can I help in some way?

I have a brother-in-law and sister-in-law in the southern Cal area. We have not heard from them yet. I'm not sure how close or far they are from the fires. They are in Lake Forest.

The ash has been lighter here in the Pt. Loma area tonight but the winds have picked up a little which is NEVER a good thing with fires in the area. Hope everyone is doing okay. Good luck to all in the area of any of the fires. Candace >MY thoughts and prayers go out to all of you in California. I hope everyone >is okay and safe.

Glad to hear everyone is okay, and hoping that you, your family, pets and homes all continue to stay safe. My thoughts are with you at this worrying time. Tracey |
