Sabrina, I am so sorry about

Sabrina, I am so sorry about Boots. It is hard enough to lose a companion, but even worse in a situation like this. My heart goes out to you and I will pray that you find housing and everything you need soon. And, remember--Boots will be waiting for you on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge.

A horrible loss

Losing a pet anytime is tough but to lose one in a fire is unimaginable.
