Prioritizing Pet Emergency Preparedness: Essential Gear and Planning
It’s officially summer and here in Northern California that means hot, dry weather, lots of pool and ice cream time and the start of fire season. Over the past couple of years, devastating fires have destroyed homes and millions of acres of land, displacing families, pets and wild animals. Although, it’s not pleasant to think about, having an emergency preparedness plan for your family, including your pets, makes split decisions easier when disaster strikes. June is National Pet Preparedness month and an ideal time to start (or finalize) your plan. Need some inspiration? A couple years ago, I wrote this article about organizations that help pets in natural disasters.
One step is making sure you prioritize the right gear, such as a carseat, harness, leash and to-go bag packed with essentials. Having these items in one organized location eliminates the stress of decision making when you have to get out of the house fast.
