Fridge Breakdown Tenants Seeking Compensation

Hello BP, 

So I own a property in Bridgeport CT one of my tenants fridge broke down. It stop working since Saturday and they just told me on Monday. I sent out a repairman, the parts will be in within the next few business days. The tenant is sending me picture of the inside of the fridge saying their food is about to spoil.

Is it my responsibility to aid them with this or they should try to find means of preserving their food in the meantime while we wait on the parts?  Cause the way they are texting me it seems like they're insisting I pay fro their groceries or provide some form of compensation for their food spoiling..

Thanks!
