Pets

Plan:
Most disaster shelters cannot accept pets because of health and safety regulations. Service animals for people with disabilities are an exception.

Arrange for a neighbor to check on your pets and take care of them if a disaster occurs while you are not at home.

Plan ahead for a friend or relative outside the affected area to shelter your animals if necessary.

Keep your pet’s ID tags up to date. Consider having your pet micro-chipped.
