EVERYTHING EVACUATES

If you can't see this video, click on the Title Above. Here's another video showing the smoke that enveloped everything. The worst part was the strong wind gusts that blew embers onto us while Meowmuh & Auntie Rika loaded their cars.Thank goodness Auntie Rika was able to get to us to help. Freeways were closed so Aunties Laurel & Sharon couldn't get to us.

THE CREEK FIRE

If you can't see the video, click on the Title above. Meowmuh included some videos of the fire so you can see how scary it was. She woke up after 4 AM to the noise of planes & helicopters flying over our house. She looked outside. The sky behind the mountains was bright orange--like a sunrise except it was too early for that. She opened a door & we could smell smoke.

EXERCISIN'

The hoomans let the four of us out of our module for a few hours every day. I admit, I went crazy. I raced 'round the room & up & down those cat trees. The hoomans told Meowmuh they'd never seen anything like it. Meowmuh said: "That's Spirit." The only problem was, the hoomans didn't feed us our food so we all got sick. Gracee didn't eat for a week.

OUR BOARDING PLACE

On 12/6 (Wed), we evacuated from Auntie Rika's to here--the second level of this module. I'm to the far left, Spirit's next to me; Gracee's hiding & Inkee-Bear's too dark to be seen. There's a handsome orange cat, Henri, below us. Best part? Going HOME on 12/8 (Fri)! Thanks to the fire fighters, skilled pilots with their night vision goggles & police for saving our home.

POST EVACUATION!!

We had to evacuate just after 4:30 AM on Tuesday, December 5. The wind was blowing so hard, the smoke was so thick, ashes & embers--Meowmuh told Auntie Rika & us to "Stay calm" but we were scared. We went to Auntie Rika's house to spend the night but the next day we had to evacuate from her house. So we went to the Best Little Cat House in Pasadena.
