OT-CA Fires
If you are in a fire area, please keep your doors and windows closed, and turn
off your A/C to keep smoke out of your house. Bring any pets inside who you can. If they mention voluntary evacuations, or you are in the path of your fires, get your animals contained. Put your pets in carriers, on leashs. Get your pet food, and any medications your animals need together. Take any vet records or pictures of them you might have. Start making arrangements to evacuate any livestock, and get them either in trailers, penned in a small area, or on halters and tied. Do NOT wait to catch your pets, if you do, you might not get them in time. Make sure that each of your pets has identification! This is very important. If you are separated from your pets, you need to make sure they have ID! Write your name and a contact number OTHER than your home number on collars or halters if you do not have tags. (If the tag has your home number, write your alt number on the collar) If your gas tank is less than half full, go fill up your tank. Do it now. You might not have time later! Because of road closures, you might have to drive much further than usual to get to safety. It is best that you leave during the voluntary evacuations. Roads are crowded, get out early to help free up the roads for fire crews. For more information on what to do for your animals during disasters, you can visit www.noahswish.org.
