Today is National Pet Fire Safety Day so we are going to be featuring what you need to know and do to keep your pets safe during a fire and much much more! During the Summer we owe it to your furry friends to keep them extra safe…comfortable and loved. We need to do everything we possibly can to avoid heat stroke…burned paw pads…drownings and everything in between. So that is why we have put together a collection of infographics that will truly help to save your pets life! So sit back with a cup of something cooling and check out these fabulous Pet Safety Tips …your pet will be very glad you did! We will be featuring more Pet Safety Tips during the Holiday Season too! Hope you enjoy our FREE Printable Pet Safety Sticker…Just print on a sticky back paper or apply a stick back and put this in your window where the firemen can see it…it could save your pets life!
First things first…for Pet Fire Safety…you have to have a plan!!!
Develop a Plan for your Pet
Including your pet in your family disaster plan is so very important and a KEY part of protecting your furry family member from the effects of a fire !!!
Determine which family memeber will be responsible for each pet
Know where your pets hide, as this may be the first place they go if there is a fire
Plan to bring your pet’s carrier when you evacuate the house. It can be a safe and comforting place for your pet to be, especially when the fire truck arrives.
Put a Pet Alert Window Sticker on a door or window near the front of the house…we have a FREE PRINTABLE PET FIRE SAFETY STICKER made just for you and your pets…just download this image…print it and stick it in your window close to the front of the house or you can be like me and have a few in different windows just to make SURE!
If you have to leave your home and go to the shelter, you will most likely not be able to bring your pets with you. Ask someone in your family or a friend in advance if they would be willing to keep your pets for you in case of an emergency.
Practice!!!! It may seem crazy, but running through the plan will help everyone feel more comfortable about what they need to do and will identify issues that are not clear. PLANNING is SOOOOOO important!!!!
*Download your FREE PET ALERT Sticker right here…we made it just to help your pets stay safe! Nice and BOLD!
