Disaster
Preparedness
For
Steuben County
Companion
Animals
They are part of our family . . . Virtually every location on
earth is vulnerable to catastrophe. None of us are
immune. It is vital that we plan ahead for our pets’ safety
as well as our own. While planning may seem
unnecessary now, when disaster strikes, all public
resources and lines of communication become overburdened. Additionally, most disaster relief shelters for
humans cannot accept pets.
HAVE A SAFE PLACE TO TAKE YOUR PETS
 Before an emergency strikes, contact the hotels,
motels, and pet boar ding facilities outside your
immediate area to check for available lodging for all your
pets in case of an emergency. Ask if “no pet” policies can
be waived in an emergency and if you have notice of an
impending disaster, call ahead for reservations.
 Ask friends and relatives outside the affected area
whether they could shelter your animals.
 Ask the loc al animal shelter if the y provide
emergency shelter or foster care for pets i n a disaster.
Animal shelters may be overburdened already by the
animals they currently have, so this s hould be a last
resort.
 You may not be at home when an evacuation order
comes. Find out in advance of an emergency if a trusted
neighbor or friend would be willing to take your pets. This
person should be c omfortable with your pets, kno w
where your pet supply kit is kept and h ave a key to your
home.
 The single mo st important thing you can d o is to
take them with you when you evacuate.
KNOW WHAT DO AS DISASTER STRIKES
When you are warned of a disaster, act to protect your
pets.
 Call ahead to confirm she lter arrangements for you
and your pets.
 Check to see that your pet pre paredness kit i s
accessible.
 Bring your entire companion animals inside so that
they are available for transport.
 Make sure all dogs and cats are wearing secure
collars with current I.D. and temporary shelter
information available.
PREPAREDNESS KIT FOR PETS

in sturdy containers for transport:
