The Pet Hurricane Ready Kit, for dogs and cats, provides the basic tools to prepare you and your pet in case of a hurricane evacuation. The kit includes a pet medical history card, a pet nylon fold-up bowl for water or food, disposable gloves , a listing of local hotels accepting pets, pet boarding facilities, pooper scooper bags or a kitty litter box liner, a dog leash or a cat collar, a rescue I.D. tag, and odor spray. There are kits for cats and dogs.
Supplies are limited.
To help identify your pet in case it becomes lost during a hurricane or any other occasion, having a photograph of you and your pet will provide sufficient proof of ownership. All shelter facilities require proof of ownership and proof of vaccinations before releasing the animal. Be sure to attach a current rabies license tag to your pet's collar. With the rescue I.D. tag in the hurricane kit, write the phone number and area code of a relative or friend outside the disaster area.
