July 15th was National Pet Fire Safety Day. This is a topic that has hit pretty close to home.
Two years ago when we were in a stage 2 evacuation (be ready) for two very large wild fires near us. It prompted us to talk about what to do in the event we have to evacuate. We have four cats and it's rare they are all in the same room at the same time. How will we get them in the care safely?
And last night the house down the street from us caught fire. Fortunately everyone escaped, but what do you do when you have a pet?
Here are some of the things we've done and recommendations by the experts.
