Pet Disaster Preparation
Would you be prepared to take care of your dog or

This week, our featured blog is Moxie Paws (TM) with a great post about preparing for a disaster when you have pets.

Plan Ahead to Care for Your Pets During a Disaster

Do you have a plan in place for caring for your dogs, cats and other pets in the event of a disaster, such as a hurricane, flood, tornado, earthquake or other natural (or not-so-natural) disaster? If not, you really need to read Moxie Paws (TM) post. You’ll learn what to do in advance of an emergency, such as preparing an emergency kit, having your pet microchipped, putting a plan in place to get away from the danger, and staying informed about potential dangers.

Caring for Your Pet During and After the Disaster

Besides providing tips for advance planning, Moxie Paws’ post also covers caring for your pet during and after the disaster as well as dealing with the aftermath. Some of the topics covered are contaminated food and water supplies and rising flood waters that can drown unsuspecting pets (and people). These are only a few of the topics covered.
