From what I have heard in the community, the house was vacant because the owners were actually staying somewhere else

CJ jeez all ANONUYMOUS said was that they were glad no humans were hurt & hoped that there were not any animals hurt either. Maybe you would not care about any pets but many do. And even though my life & my childrens life may be safe it would also hurt that my pets did not survive. The house and material things are least important to me but all life is precious.

Who was the family? My heart goes out to anyone that looses that home to fire. I hope they are all safe!

Is their a special place being set up for items to be donated to the family?

you have got to be kidding! if my home was a total loss, and my children were safe, the last thing i would be concerned about would be my pet! i can't believe that's your only concern!
