The tragedy that happened in DC was definitely very terrible. Anytime you lose your loved ones or anything to a fire, it can be  very traumatizing. It is also very hard to recover from something like that in my opinion. I think the article said that cats were taken away by the fire. This is tough because i have pets and i love them to death.

Fires always manage to touch my heart. I have personal experience with this and the fear is still with me to this day. A fire can ravage everything that you have any really leave a person traumatized. A lot of times a person or family will get woken up to loud alarms and smoke out of nowhere and have to pick their most important possessions to save. This is a scary situation!

I guess I just feel bad for these people.  Losing your home to a fire has got to suck.  Not only did you lose everything you love and own in the blink of an eye, but let's be honest, it was probably your fault.  Usually fires start because you were doing something you weren't supposed to, or there was shoddy work completed.

After reading the article, i felt really bad for the family that was involved in the fire. It is unfortunate because it was something accidental and something that could have happened to anyone. I am also glad that they are okay though and nobody died. I did feel unfortunate and sad for their cats because it stated that they were killed in the fire.
