Preparing Your Pets for Emergencies Makes Sense. Get
Ready Now.
While
our pets hold a special place in our hearts, unfortunately they often
don't hold a place in our disaster preparedness plans.
Please consider pets when preparing for the
approaching wildfire season and other disasters.
FEMA’s Ready Campaign
has a brochure on
pet preparedness(PDF file), a
pet preparedness instructional video, and a
Community Pet Preparedness Toolkit.
