    It is important to keep your pets ID tags up-to-date. Consider listing two telephone numbers: 1) your cell phone and 2) the telephone number of a friend or family member outside of your city. If your pet is recovered and telephone service is down in your area, it provides an alternate location for your pet to be cared for until you can be reconnected. You may also consider getting your pet micro-chipped.

    Other who can care for your pet(s)
    • Identify a friend or family member who can care for your pet, preferably outside of your neighborhood.

      Pet Safety Pack
      Have fun creating a sign of your own, or go to the ASPCA website to receive a free pet safety pack that includes this ‘Animals Inside!’ sticker. Something as simple as a sign in the window will let people know that pets are inside your home.
      Make sure it is visible to rescue workers, and that it includes 1) the types and number of pets in your household; 2) the name of your veterinarian; and 3) your veterinarian's phone number. If you must evacuate with your pets, and if time allows, write "EVACUATED" across the stickers.
