🏠 1. Create a Pet Emergency Plan
* Include your pets in your family’s disaster plan.
* Know where you can safely bring them (some evacuation centers may not allow animals).
* Identify pet-friendly shelters, relatives, or friends who can accommodate them.
🎒 2. Prepare a Pet Go-Bag
Pack essentials in an easy-to-grab bag:
* Food and water (for at least 3–5 days)
* Portable bowls
* Leash, harness, and collar with ID tag
* Recent photos of your pet (for identification)
* Vaccination and medical records
* Pet carrier or crate
* Small blanket or toy to comfort them
🐶 3. Keep Identification Updated
* Ensure your pets wear collars with updated tags.
* Microchip your pets and keep your contact info current.
* This increases the chance of reunion if you get separated.
🐕🦺 4. Familiarize Pets with Their Carrier
* Train them to stay calm inside their crate or travel bag.
* Practice “drills” where you safely guide them into the carrier quickly.
🚪 5. Secure Your Home
* Choose a safe space where pets can take cover (away from windows and heavy objects).
* Keep leashes or carriers near exits for quick evacuation.
❤️ 6. Stay Calm and Reassuring
* Pets mirror your emotions—stay calm during tremors.
* Practice small safety drills so they get used to your command and tone.
🙏 7. Pray for Protection
Ask God to watch over your pets as part of your family. Their safety matters, too.
Prayer for Pets’ Safety 🙏🏼
Lord, protect our pets during earthquakes and calamities. Keep them safe, calm, and close to Your care. Cover our homes and every living being with Your divine protection. With faith in You, we will get through this together. Amen.
