Remember the Pets during Storm

5/4/2018 (Permalink)

During a storm event, it's always smart to have a plan for your family --sometimes, it's hard to remember to have a plan for your pets too. 

Ready.gov recommends a variety of ways to keep your pets safe during storm events. 

Here are a few: 

• Create a buddy system in case you’re not home. Ask a trusted neighbor to check on your pets.
• Identify shelters. 
• Find a local veterinarian or animal hospital where you may need to take an injured pet.
• Have your pet microchipped with up to date information.
• Call your local emergency management office, animal shelter or animal control office to get advice and information.

We want everyone to stay safe during storm events. So, next time a storm event is coming around the corner remember to keep the little paws, claws, and other pets safe!
