Don't forget your furry friends during severe weather!

With a hurricane brewing in the Gulf, it’s a good time to remind ourselves about how to prepare for natural disasters. Don’t forget to prepare your pets for their basic needs to be met in case of emergency!

Some items to consider for your basic disaster kit for pets:
Kennel
Food and water (and bowls)
Collar and leash
Muzzle
Sanitation items
Medications
First aid kit
Toys or comfort items
