They say the day your life changes starts out as any other ordinary day. When the Los Angeles wildfires began in Pacific Palisades, the estimated 5.3 million pet dogs and 5.7 million pet cats living in Los Angeles County, I dare say, did not expect their lives to unfold in the catastrophic way in which they did.
I have spent much time in Los Angeles, and Pacific Palisades is close to my heart. I’ve drunk coffee in the 100-year-old Starbucks building (now destroyed by the fires), toured Palisades Charter High School and Palisades Charter Elementary School with my two boys some years ago and shopped in Pali’s grocery stores.
