While I could write up a list of tips for hurricane preparation for animals, I am going to leave this to a subject matter expert. Dr. James Randolph is a veterinarian who has resided on the Gulf Coast for many years. He has written some excellent articles on hurricanes and pets, and has also shared his story of having a boarding kennel during Hurricane Katrina. He has written better articles on this subject than I ever could. All links open in a new window. If you live in a disaster prone area,please take these suggestions to heart for your four legged friends, especially the microchip suggestion. There are too many stories of pets who never made it back home because they were not microchipped-- whether they got out of a back yard or were separated from their owners due to rising flood waters. Prepare for the unexpected-- make an appointment to microchip your pets today. |
