Avma Disaster Preparedness Booklet

Given recent disasters (Hurricane Florence, gas explosions), I thought I'd post this AVMA booklet for everyone to have: AVMA Store - Product It's a free download.

A Spanish language version is available at AVMA Store - Product

You can ask your vet, rescue, shelter, etc to order a box of booklets to give out to pet owners.

It has lots of good info on what to have for a "grab and go" emergency kit for your pet, first aid, what to do during and after the emergency, etc.

Thanks so much!

That's helpful! Thanks for posting about it.

Great resource, picked up a couple of things we had not though of before.

We keep a couple of months of food and medical supplies on hand for us and the cats. We have carriers, water, cash, weapons/ammunition, maps etc. But I never thought about having large enough carriers for the cats to sleep in or keeping their medical records handy. I also never though about making sure the neighbors have access to the codes and keys for our home if we couldn't get back for some reason.
