PET EMERGENCY PLANNING Taking care of that other part of your family

Planning Gives You Control 1. Locate 2 places where you can send or safely evacuate with your pets. 2. Put together a kit 3. Create a buddy system with at least 2 others who live in your area. It’s a 3-step process

STEP 1 Locate several places you can send, or go with, your pet if you must evacuate your home. 1. Veterinarian 2. Kennel 3. Family or friend 4. Pet friendly hotel Keep a list of them, along with 800 numbers, in the emergency kit.

Carry emergency information in your wallet. PETS AT HOME List 4 names and phone numbers of people who agree to pick up your pets if you can’t get home. If, for some reason, you can’t get home or contact help yourself, a hospital attendant or policeman will find the card next to other emergency information and place a call to get help for your pet.

Put together an emergency kit for your pet(s) STEP 2 Put together an emergency kit for your pet(s) Some items are needed by all pets. Others depend on the kind of animal and on your pets’ special needs. Food for at least 7 days Water and dish Leash and harness Clean up materials (bags/litter) Medications and directions Calming medication Familiar items (toys, blanket, treats) Muzzle Booties (protect feet/cover wounds) Crate Stake-out and line Papers in a protective cover See next slide. First Aid Kit Mild wound cleanser Gauze rolls & pads Bandage tape Antibiotic ointment Isopropyl alcohol prep pads Saline solution (eyes and wounds) Scissors, tweezers, eyedropper Antidiarrheal/Peto Bismol (not for cats) 1 Tsp. per 5 lb.to maximum of 2 Tbsp.

Put papers in a protective cover Copy of license Confirmation of micro-chip Proof of vaccination Recent photo of pet(s) with you Emergency numbers: vet, home phone and other friend/family phone numbers Description of medical issues and personality quirks List of pet-friendly hotels with 800 numbers Authorization for emergency medical care

Create a buddy system STEP 3 Ideally: At least 2 who live nearby Generally different schedules Must: Know your animals and they are comfortable with each other Have key to your home Know where the emergency kit is Have emergency numbers including the vet The buddies will check each others homes after a disaster. One of you may be unable to get home or phone.

Last But Not Least A micro-chip is your pets’ ticket home but only if the registration is up-to-date!
