June is National Pet Preparedness Month. What better time to create an emergency preparedness kit for your pets to ensure complete family readiness during an emergency or disaster. “Remember, if it isn’t safe for you, it isn’t safe for your pets, so it’s important to include your pets in your readiness plan.”
To create a pet preparedness kit, ensure the following items are readily available in a safe location:
- Pet food, water and bowls
- Pet carrier, leash and collar
- Photo of your pet or ID and a photo of you with your pet
- Immunization, veterinary records and pet medications
- First Aid Kit
- Contact list of pet-friendly hotels, veterinarians, and out-of-town friends and family
- Toys, rope and sanitation bags
Yours in Public Safety,
Sheriff Tom Reich
