t is important to take your pet with you. If you cannot, make sure your pet can get into a safe, secure room without windows, but with adequate air. (Like a big bathroom). Leave enough food for three days. Leaving enough water for your pet is very important. One pet can drink several gallons of water a day. Put water in containers that are not easily knocked over. Leave a faucet dripping into a bathtub or sink (with the drain open!). Leave their favorite bed and toys. Don’t confine dogs and cats in the same space. Put a notice on your front door saying where your pets are in the house and a phone number where you will be.

Never, never, never leave your dog tied up outside!
