Our home flooded out a few years back. We had 2 cats, 1 dog. When you leave your home, as we had to do. It is amazing what you wish you had. I suppose the biggest thing was litter boxes, and a outside space for the dog. I still keep stuff in the truck if we should ever have to do that again, due to any reason. One thing that will be in all cars is some sort of leash for the dog. You must remember, they are homeless too. It helps to prepare.Momma Nichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07592478320479013130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-442120849666486527.post-21143657481621730382009-02-19T20:12:00.000-05:002009-02-19T20:12:00.000-05:00Good thing to think about.

It's a great idea to have supplies stored for them, too.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10677189671053677667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-442120849666486527.post-52425860470493413532009-02-19T15:58:00.000-05:002009-02-19T15:58:00.000-05:00We evac'd Rita during 100+ temps, and much of it w...We evac'd Rita during 100+ temps, and much of it was spent idling, which meant we couldn't run the AC, otherwise the vehicles would overheat. We used a spray bottle and a fan to cool our pets. A friend that did lots of dog shows recommended using a mylar blanket over their cages to deflect heat. I guess it could be reversed to keep in heat in cold climates.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08827052626667535975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-442120849666486527.post-53186697998367893892009-02-19T15:22:00.000-05:002009-02-19T15:22:00.000-05:00There are also little backpacks for dogs so they c...There are also little backpacks for dogs so they can carry their own food and water.
