Description

In the aftermath of a devastating fire at Wang Fuk Court housing complex, Hong Kongs animal welfare volunteers played a crucial role in rescuing pets amidst the chaos. Despite the ongoing fire, these dedicated individuals, armed with oxygenated pet carriers and animal ambulances, braved the flames to save over ten cats, seven dogs, and several turtles. Their efforts, coordinated with firefighters, were made possible by a list of over one hundred pet cases shared by concerned owners. As the rescue mission continues, the fire has tragically claimed forty-four lives, with nearly three hundred still missing. The investigation into the cause of the fire, potentially linked to unsafe scaffolding and foam materials, unfolds alongside the heartwarming reunions of pets and their owners, thanks to Hong Kongs pet microchipping system.
