I hope the vets clinic is okay 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

@Malinalli they had to break open the roof and it was filled with smoke but the owner of the shop was there quick and got all the animals out. There is smoke damage, everything inside is black but it did not burn down. A good cleaning and roof repair and it will be up and running I’m sure

Not only is the veterinarian clinic there but on the side is a grooming place where sometimes they have pets stay over at the grooming place. Any updates if that is OK if all the animals are out or if there was no animals at all inside???
