Whether you're raising a mischievous kitten, a loyal pup, or even a sassy parrot, you’re doing an amazing job! Because being a pet mom means unconditional love, endless patience, and always sharing the couch. 🛋️🐕🐈

Today is National Animal Disaster Preparedness Day—a reminder to include your furry, feathered, and scaly family members in your emergency plans. 🐾🌪️

Here’s how to keep your pets safe:

1️⃣ Create a Pet Emergency Kit: Include food, water, medications, vaccination records, a leash/harness, and comfort items like toys or blankets. 🛠️🐕
2️⃣ Have an Evacuation Plan: Know pet-friendly shelters or hotels in your area and ensure your pets are microchipped and wearing updated ID tags. 📍🐾
3️⃣ Practice Together: Familiarize your pets with carriers and emergency drills, so they stay calm if disaster strikes. 🚨🐾
4️⃣ Stay Informed: Monitor weather alerts and have a list of nearby veterinary clinics in case of injury. 📡🩺

Being prepared can save lives. Let’s make sure our beloved animals are ready for anything—because they rely on us to be their heroes. 🐾❤️
