A deadly fire that killed nearly 100 cats at an animal shelter in Toronto, Canada, was caused by …. mice!
The fire at the humane society shelter in Oshawa also killed three dogs and some rats that were up for adoption.
An initial report from the fire marshal says mice or rats chewing through electrical wires in the ceiling are likely to have sparked the blaze.

That’s horribly sad. I can’t imagine those poor critters, trapped in their cages . . . .

Yeah, Neatorama has taken a decidedly morbid and un-neat turn this year.
It’s slowly slipping off my “daily visit list” as I now not quite sure if I’m going to enjoy what I see here.

Mhmm, yes, very ironic and cute.
I think I’ll go cry under my blanket for a while. Fine show.

No, even if you don’t like cats, that’s pretty sad. I guess it’s not if you ‘hate’ cats, but thats not the same thing really.

I believe it was more than just cats. It’s a sad story, and it’s too bad that you’d make light of it.

Im sort of on the same page as steve s. Morbidity is never short here now.

That really is sad despite whether or not you like cats. Though the strangeness of it all certifies it for neat-o-rama, morbid or not.
