Yes, I lost my old dog to the heat, and I know of other people who have lost animals during this heatwave. But also, we've had some fires burning out of control where animals were lost also. It's been a long and very hot summer, that's for sure!
I was worried about our pair of cockatiels too, as we have a young baby cockatiel still in the nest, but luckily they have all survived!
