Include your pet in emergency plans

  • Add pet food that doesn't require power to prepare to your emergency kit
  • Treats help calm you pet in stressful times
  • Stock enough water for you and your pet
  • Arrange for a safe place for you and your pet to go - don't leave your pet behind
  • Keep a leash close by - pets get disoriented in an emergency and can wander away
  • Put a "rescue my pet(s)" sticker on your doors so police or fire personnel know to rescue your pets
