Disasters can happen without warning!
Emergencies come in many forms: fires, hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes, floods, violent storms, and even terrorism. In the event of extreme weather or a disaster, would you know what to do to protect your pet? Leaving pets out of evacuation plans can put pets, pet owners, and first responders in danger. Even if you try to create a safe place for them, pets left behind during a disaster are likely to be injured, lost, or worse.

- Identify pet-friendly shelters and accommodations.
- Ensure proper identification and necessary paperwork for your pets.
- Understand evacuation procedures and transportation considerations.
