1. It's leaking from the supply lines

Your shower is leaking from the lines that bring water to the shower, or from the shower valve. It's not going to stop leaking until someone fixes it. Depending on how your house is plumbed, there may be a shut-off you can use to turn off just the shower. Your only other alternative is to shut off the water to the whole house.

As for the fridge, that shouldn't have heated up that much. Defrosting cycles in freezers can heat the compartment some, but this is the fridge. Doesn't mean it's about to die, but it is odd. Should probably check it every so often.
