I posted something on the Rainbow Bridge section about this, too.
Please keep our friends in your thoughts and prayers today. They had a fire in their house yesterday while both at work, and even though the fire department responded quickly, their 4 bunnies did not survive. The property damage is irrelevant - the loss of their pets is devastating.
I know they consider their pets as true family members, like children, so their pain is unimaginable. When Tonka was alive, that was one of my worst anxieties -- a house fire when he was home alone. I remember driving home from work once, seeing heavy black smoke coming from my general neighborhood as I drove, and I was a basket case imagining that my house was in flames while Tonka was trapped inside (it was some kind of major field fire).
I'm sure they're struggling with guilt, regret, what-ifs and all that. Please include some good vibes for this couple -- it is very much appreciated. Thank you everyone.
