Preparing for Natural Disasters and Emergencies
Hurricane Irene already devastated the Caribbean and is now headed for the Eastern Seaboard. Be safe this Saturday and Sunday and make sure to have everything necessary to keep yourselves and your pets safe!
In the event of a hurricane, tornado or other emergency situations, it's important to be prepared.
Make sure you have the essential pet supplies and are ready to evacuate with your pets if necessary. Below is a list of supplies you need to have on hand in case of emergency. Remember to keep emergency kits by exits or in cars for fast evacuation.
1) Bottled water
2) Extra collar and leash
3) A one week supply of dry or wet food- be sure to replace dry food after a few months
4) A recent picture of your pets incase you are separated
5) Current medical and vaccination records in a water proof bag. You can also laminate copies of the records for safe, dry keeping. It's important to keep your pets current on all shots.
6) A one week supply of your pets' medications: Replace medicine every few months so it doesn't expire.
7) Traveling food and water bowls
8) Clean-up bags
9) Pet first aid kit
10) Updated tags or microchip on your pet
11) Small blanket
12) Crate or carrier. Pets housed in emergency shelters must be contained.
13) Kitty litter
Remember to evacuate before the government orders you to. If a government mandatory evacuation is ordered, you may not be able to take your pet.
