Letter to Pet Parents

While we always hope for a smooth, uneventful storm season, we all know too well that disasters, such as hurricanes, tornadoes or earthquakes, can strike at any time, with little or no notice. At Petfinder.com, we want all our pet families to have an easy-to-execute plan that will make it safer for everyone.

Since Petfinder.com strongly recommends that all families prepare a disaster kit and plan for your pets, we want to ensure that you have all the tools to help make the process as painless as possible. Please take a look at our suggested preparedness plan with printable tips and plan outlines and start up the road to complete family safety today!

Warm regards,

Betsy Saul

Tips for Preparing Your Pets for Disasters

  • Ready your Disaster Preparedness Kit items.
  • Take photos of your pet with your cell phone. In case you get separated, the pictures will help rescue groups to locate your pet.
  • Have a pet carrier at the ready if you have to evacuate.
  • If you do have to evacuate, take your pet with you.
