Sounds like what I did. I got one with glycol (sic) so I could do the
garage too. Good luck. Mine makes me feel considerably safer----especially
when Dixie is here alone.

I guess I should have qualified that statement by saying I'm having
somebody build a fire suppression system! I did research online
first--there are several different companies--but then what I will do is
speak with the local firefighters here and see what they have to say as to
what company to use. Who knows? I might get a date with a fireman out of
it!

I'm also building a fire suppression system--a retrofit in a ranch
style--thank goodness it'll be relatively easy. All the stuff that
should be unplugged will also save you gobs of $$$ if you plug those
items into strips and then just throw the switches at night or
whenever. Spend the money you've saved on--who else!?-- THE KITTIES!

OK..to gross out more people. Electricity continues to run to
appliances even if they are turned off. A friend's apartment
building burned because a curling iron was plugged in-not on but
plugged in and left. Same with almost everything. No you can't
unplug every appliance in the house but the cheaper ones seem to be
the most dangerous. Also washers can over flow causing problems.
Guess the lesson is to leave as little running as possible. I just
had a tv smoke up when I tried to turn it on. Also, keep a fire
extinguisher handy.
I'm so concerned about fire that in the house I am building there is
a fire sprinkler system (no, it is not that expensive
comparatively--a lot less than a granite counter top).

Hey guys,
An addition to the warning to never leave a dryer
running while away: never leave your dishwasher
running while you're gone either! It can also catch
fire. My apartment complex ten years ago experienced
this exact thing, and I didn't believe it until I
actually spoke with a fireman who verified it.
So happy they found more kitties alive!!! That
fireman probably saved their
lives!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am going to send him snail mail tomorrow.

I am heading for bed, but I just called a friend who
is a HS volunteer. He was working with them to find
homes for 4 feleuk+ cats. He said Scooter was an
orange tabby? Right now he has no info, but the
cats
were housed in a room near the cattery.
This morning they found a cat sitting on top of the
rubble. Later today they discovered a black kitten
peeping through the rubble. Later a large gray one
came running out of the woods and sat where his cage
had been. He was VERY hungry! These 3 are fine.
That brings the total to at least 11 who have
survived. 4 of the survivors are in critical care,
and
the local vets have all chipped in with supplies.
The
other cats that did survive have all been adopted by
volunteers saying they will never be in a cage again
The young fireman who was hurt did not leave when
the
command was given. They ran through the cat area
opening cages, then smashing windows and breaking
open
doors trying to shoo them out. He went back in the
last time to grab 2 puppies, and the roof caved in
on
him. I will tell you how to contact him tomorrow.
Fire started in the dryer. Word is that either lint
caught fire, or the timer failed and it overheated.
Never leave a dryer on when you're away!
Will keep you posted.
