Ribbie, a 16 week old Absolutely Adorable, Cocker Spaniel!
Are you ready? Hurricane season officially began on June 1st. Make sure you have a plan for your beloved 'fur kids' if we become a target this year. The SPCA has a great article on their website to help you prepare. Here is the Survival Kit for your pets:
Pet Survival Kit
Have your pet's cage or carrier and a Doggy Disaster or Kitty Catastrophe Supply Kit prepared in advance regardless of evacuation requirements. Keep these items in a watertight container, insuring that they are easily accessible in the event of sudden evacuation. Be certain to label all items with a tag or waterproof marker. A pet survival kit is imperative whether evacuating or not, and should include the following items:
- Collar with tags & a sturdy leash and muzzle, if necessary
- Any necessary medications - 2 weeks supply
- Medical records & vaccination info
- First aid kit
- Food and water - at least 2 weeks supply
- Ziplock bags for treats and important papers
- Cat litter, pan, and liners
- Plastic trash bags to handle waste
- Newspaper and paper towels for clean ups
- Toys and other comfort items
- Photo of your pet
