BE PREPARED WITH A
DISASTER PLAN
The best way to protect your family from the effects of a
disaster is to have a disaster plan. If you are a pet owner, that plan
must include your pets. Being prepared can save their lives.
Different disasters require different responses. But whether the
disaster is a hurricane or a hazardous spill, you may have to evacuate
your home.
In the event of a disaster, if you must evacuate, the most
important thing you can do to protect your pets is to evacuate them, too.
Leaving pets behind, even if you try to create a safe place for them, is
likely to result in their being injured, lost, or worse. So prepare now
for the day when you and your pets may have to leave your home. |
