Emergencies and pets: What to do

Pets are valued members of our families and it is important to know what to do with them in an emergency. We have had some severe weather this past winter and summer.
Are you prepared to take care of your pet in an emergency situation like a hurricane or tornado? The American Red Cross has some useful tips on what to do with pets in an emergency. They also have a checklist available at this web site.
