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.
- 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.
