27 It Pays to Be Prepared! Betty the Prepared Dog Betty lives on the CA coast. Her people made sure a pet life jacket was included in her emergency supply kit. April 28, 2012 /Carolyn Deming/FEMA
28 Hopefully I ve Struck a Cord There were some happy reunions, to be sure, but also many not so happy endings. Lessons learned within the emergency management and first responder industries. The need for household preparedness.
29 So, How to Prepare?
30 First of All, No Matter the Disaster, Things Will Be Different It s helpful to know what s normal for your animals: behavior, body language, eating / sleep habits, heart rate, respiration, temperature, etc.
31 Desensitize Your Animals by working with them regularly. handout
32 Second, ALWAYS Consider Your Own Safety because if you re killed or injured you can t help anyone else. Be very safety conscious, even when dealing with animals you know! Also be cautious helping animals you don t know They may attack or act differently Stay clear, approach cautiously, learn to read their body language. handout
33 Third, PLAN NOW, Before Disaster Strikes by gathering supplies, creating plans, and practicing them. Failing to plan is planning to fail. FEMA preparation mantra
34 Preparation is Vital! There are no good reasons for not having a plan: The government will take care of me! I have insurance It will never happen to me It won t be that bad
35 Reasons to have a plan: To protect you and your family To protect your pets and livestock To protect your property, business, etc. To protect the safety and wellbeing of emergency responders, and To allow you to help your community and reserve critical community resources for: those with special needs those who are more severely impacted
36 The YOYO Rule Severity of Emergency Resource needs YOYO Federal resources State resources Local resources Personal or organizational Resources (YOYO)
37 So! Whatever You Do to Prepare for Yourself A Red Cross "ready to go" kit Red Cross photograph Do the Same for Your Animals!
38 Whether You Stay (Shelter-in-Place) or You Go (Evacuate) Have a Plan for Your Animals As Well As Yourself!
39 Whether You Stay or Go, Plan for Your Animals! If you shelter-in-place, don t forget to bring in the animals! If you must evacuate, do not leave your animals behind. If it is unsafe for you to remain, then it is unsafe for your them! Be prepared to ID your animals (tags, chips, pix, identifying marks).
40 ID ing Your Animals Take and store pictures of your pet, and of you and your pet together. If you become separated from your pet during an emergency, a picture of you and your pet together will help you document ownership and allow others to assist you in identifying your pet. Also consider Additional Sheets by Animal Aid Include detailed information about species, breed, age, sex, color and distinguishing characteristics. You might also (not instead but also) store pictures of your animals on your phone. Credit: Linda Keast / Animal Aid / Loose Proofing Session
41 Think About Transportation Do you have adequate carriers and cages; train pets to like them! ( desensitize ) Do you have adequate trailers; train animals to load! ( desensitize )
42 Where Do You Evacuate To? Emergency shelters won t accept animals! If you re lucky people and animal shelters will be close to one another. Have a plan of where to go with your animals (friends or family outside the area, boarding facilities, pet-friendly hotels, camp grounds, vet clinics, etc.) If you have multiple animals you may have to house them separately.
