72- Hour
Disaster Kit
For Pets

Accidents and disasters can't always be prevented, but you can be prepared if they strike. Remember, if it's not safe for you, it's not safe for your pets.

If you are to evacuate in an emergency situation, have your pet's emergency kit ready to go along with the rest of your family's emergency supplies.

Your 72 Hour Pet Disaster Kit should include the following:

- Always have a collar with an ID tag, city license tag and rabies tag on the pet.
- Proof of current shots and health records in a waterproof container such as a freezer bag.
- Current photo of pet
- Food and water bowls with enough food and water for three days, remember to keep the food in a watertight container.
- Pet carrier with bedding
- Plastic bags to dispose of pet dropping and other waste
- Leash
- Medications
- Toys
- Manual can opener for canned food
- First Aid Kit
- Grooming Supplies
- Paper towels/wet wipes
- Cat litter and litter
- Flashlight and spare batteries

The most important thing you can do is to protect your pets and your family when the unexpected happens is to plan ahead.
