Nineteen pets died in a Saturday morning fire that destroyed a home in the Lake Wilderness I subdivision of Spotsylvania County.
Spotsylvania Deputy Fire Chief Monty Willaford said 12 cats and seven dogs perished inside the single-family home in the 12900 block of Dubin Drive. Another three cats were rescued, and four more were missing.
The residents of the house were not there when the fire occurred.
A 911 call about the fire came in at 11:16 a.m., Willaford said, and the first firefighters arrived about 10 minutes later. The 1,800-square-foot house was engulfed in flames when crews got there, and the roof soon collapsed. There were no injuries to any humans.
About 30 firefighters and rescuers assisted in the effort, but the fire resulted in a total loss of the house, which was valued at about $200,000, Willaford said. Heat from the blaze caused about $10,000 in damage to the next-door house, mostly to its vinyl siding.
Fire officials investigated the cause of the Saturday blaze throughout the day. Willaford said it is too early to tell if the fire was accidental, or what caused it.
