We “got” to evacuate during a wildfire. Fortunately our property survived. It was not the happiest experience. One of my closest friends let us shelter at her and her dude’s apartment. I don’t know how they got through it because I’m pretty stinky. Anyways the relevant bit is that we almost had to leave the cats. The skittish one got out at our friend’s place. I still have nightmares about that. He wasn’t too hard to get back in, but shit, I almost had an aneurysm the stress that little turd gave me. Oh yeah, then he pissed in the back seat on the way home.
