Don't forget about your pet during this storm season. Plan now and pack a disaster kit. Here's a list of some useful items to include inside...
- Leash and collar with an ID tag already attached.
- A copy of current vaccination records from your vet. We don't recommend relying on a Rabies tag as it does not include dates.
- Recent photo of your pet in case of separation.
- A week's worth of food, water and any medications your pet will need.
- Food and water dishes
- A blanket
- A pet first-aid kit. This should include vetrap or some sort of bandages, antiseptic spray, children's aspirin, tweezers and scissors.
These listed above are your very basics. You might also want to make sure you have a crate available, perhaps some toys, and a supply of plastic bags to name a few.
Don't forget to also have some sort of game plan for your pets. Who is responsible for finding them if there was a fire? Were would you put them? Who can watch your pets for you if you cannot, and so on...
Feel free to leave more tips and ideas.
