Are you and your pet prepared?

Never leave your pet behind. The safest place for your pet is with you! If you must evacuate, take your pet along. Place two ID tags on your pet’s collar. Include a temporary tag with the phone number of a friend or relative who lives outside your immediate area. Microchip your pet and make sure the chip registration is updated. Be sure to locate and update your microchip registry. Prepare a travel kit for your pet. Include bowls, food, bottled water, towels, needed prescriptions, bathing supplies, flea/tick control, and leashes. Make sure your pets are current on vaccinations. Create a record file for each pet. Include your pet’s vaccination records. Always travel with photographs of your pet. Have travel carriers handy for evacuation. Make your pet’s carrier a fun and safe place by placing treats, toys and meals in it on a routine basis. Most public evacuation shelters do not accept pets. Know ahead of time pet friendly accommodations. Visit ‘Bring Fido‘ to locate pet friendly accommodations, and view our map below for area shelters that do allow them. Take your dogs on a long walk before the storm. Keep your pets routine as normal as possible (feeding time and potty time Bonus tip: you can buy a small area of fake grass and a baby pool and put in the garage for them to use the bathroom during the storm.
