Hurricane/Tornado/Fire Preparing your pets For Disaster

It can be hurricane season, fire, flood, whatever it is, you should be ready, so you can keep your pet sound and safe.

What you need to prepare for an emergency:
*Keep pet carriers, leashes,harnesses and dog tag in good condition and reachable.
*Place medications and medical records, including proof of current vaccinations, in a waterproof container

*A two week supply of any medication your pet may be taking on a regular basis and familiar food and water

* Pack first aid supplies for pets

* Blanket if it’s cold days

*An information sheet including: medical conditions and treatment schedule if needed, feeding instructions, name and phone number of your vet or a kennel outside your area in case you need it.

*Photos of your pet in case it gets lost.

*Attach your name and information to the back of the dog tag, if you know the phone # where you’ll be, add it too.

*Today there are many friendly pet hotels/motels, make a list and phone #, maybe you’ll need to use it.

*Consider having your pet micro-chipped in case it is lost or you are separated

*Place an emergency decal on your front window or door; if disaster strikes while you are not home, this decal will alert rescuers of the animals inside. Good idea for everyday.

I know you know it all. But we usually postpone things and them we are sorry……..
