HURRICANES AND OTHER DISASTERS:

A good disaster plan will prepare you for disasters that come with some warning ( hurricanes, wildfires, or floods ) and those that strike suddenly such as chemical spills or tornadoes.  You’ll even be ready for extended power outages that become true emergencies if they happen during a heat wave or ice storm.

TO-DO LIST FOR PROTECTING YOUR PETS IN A DISASTER

1)     Start getting ready now

         *  ID your pet                                                 *  Find a safe place to stay ahead of time

         *  Put together your disaster kit            *  Plan for your pet in case you’re not at home

2)    If you evacuate – Take your pet

3)    If you stay at home – Do it Safely
