Natural Disasters & Severe Weather
Natural disasters, such as storms and wildfires are scary for us and our pets. If we need to evacuate our homes for any reason, we want to make sure that our loved ones including our four-legged family members are safe.
Make sure that you are prepared for emergency situations by making sure that you have supplies prepared for your pet.
Grab the Essentials:
- Food and water. Make sure to have at least few days supply sealed in air tight containers & enough water bottles for you and them.
- Food & water bowls
- Extra collar and leash
- Garbage bags
- One crate/carrier for each pet
- Flash light
- Blankets/comfortable items with their scent on it.
For Dogs:
- Extra leash
- Chew toys

It is also important to make sure that your pet has a collar with appropriate tags on. Keeping your pet’s chip up to date ensures that even if you are separated from them, that you will be able to find your way back to each other.
By following these steps, and getting things prepared, you will able to feel just a little more secure that you and your pet are going to be okay.
