Hurricane Season is here - Do you have a pet hurricane plan in case of an evacuation?
Have you planned for you AND your pet in case you
must evacuate?
June 1st through November 30th is hurricane season and at K9 Advisors we want everyone, people and pets, to be safe and
the best way is planning ahead. Making sure you have your
hurricane supplies for your family and pet(s) now is the first step.
The next step is preparing for a hurricane evacuation for your family
and pet(s). We all hope that an evacuation will never happen but
unfortunately it can and having your plan now is a necessity.
Time and time again last minute preparations as a storm rapidly
approaches still takes place and if the unimaginable happens and an
evacuation is necessary the family pet(s) can easily be overlooked.
But taking the time now to make an evacuation plan will ensure your
family and pet's safety.
K9 Advisors has put together information that will be helpful in
creating a hurricane evacuation plan for your pet(s). Planning
ahead to locate a shelter or hotel for your family and pet(s) is very
important. Many hurricane shelters do not allow pets, except for
service animals, so you need to find a shelter in advance that will
accept not just your family but your pet(s). In K9 Advisors
directory we have a list of pet friendly hotels, shelters and more.
We have found a free
hurricane guide provided by the Humane Society of Miami to
download or pick up at one of the Humane Society
locations. The guide has preparedness tips, pet friendly
hotels and boarding kennels in South Florida areas including a new pet
friendly evacuation shelter for people in Miami Dade County. Remember
to register in advance with a pet friendly shelter, once the storm
approaches registration will stop.
Here are some tips for pet owners:
*
Leave early if you live in an area that may be evacuated.
* Make sure your pet(s) has current immunizations.
*
Pets should wear up-to-date identification and be micro-chipped.
*
Take your animal's food with you. Stressed animals may experience
intestinal problems,
but using the same food will help reduce the
trouble.
*
Have copies of pets' vaccinations, medical records and
prescriptions.
*
Keep a pet carrier and leash close at hand.
