Pet Emergency Aid Kits

By Eric Holm


Pet first aid kits are an essential part of the survival of pets during emergencies. The importance of preparing for calamities, not only for yourself and family, but also for your pets has been underscored after a lot of dead pets were found in the aftermath of

Therefore it is crucial that you plan for an emergency situation and make sure that your family pet and companion has a chance of survival, just like the rest of the family. So what kinds of things can you do to prepare a first aid kit for your pet?

Assembling your pet first aid kit is one of the first things you should do to help ensure the survival and happiness of your pet during emergency situations. Remember that pets are more sensitive than humans when it comes to feeling catastrophes or natural disasters, so there is a big possibility that they will react violently or restlessly before, during and even after the calamity. Because of this, you need to include pet safety products such as lighted collars, possible motion activated dog tags, and even pet carriers. Of course, you also need to provide emergency survival pet food and water for your precious pooches, cats, or birds. It is important that you check the food and water supply of your pets regularly to ensure that they are good when disaster strikes. We would recommend that you keep at least a three day supply of emergency food and water for your pet, just like is recommended for your emergency kit.

You also need to think about toys, blankets and items that your pet loves. These will help to distract them and calm them, especially if you are evacuated to an emergency center. Another factor to consider if you are is whether or not pets are allowed in the center. If they are, then you will need to think about poop bags and scoops to ensure that you are considerate to the sanitation of the place. If, for sanitary reasons, pets are not allowed, then a carrier will help to keep them safe and confined outside with a blanket and some food while you wait for assistance.

Pets really do become part of the family and planning ahead in this way will ensure that you do the very best for your whole family in an emergency.
