Pet store without water, animals die

[Catherine]

A Winnipeg pet store had frozen pipes and has been without water for weeks. They have had animal losses and they say they are closing the business.

What do you think? Running a pet store without running water would be tough. What would I do at my place if I had no running water for a month.
Maybe she should have had a massive sale of vulnerable animals early on. She still has the rest of her business, the pet supplies and foods.

I worry about loss of heat. I never really thought about the consequences of loss of water.

Of course loss of the dog groomer is another complication. I think the customer base would be loyal if they were loyal before.
