Disaster Prepardeness and your pets

Storms, earthquakes, floods, extreme heat and cold all pose serious danger for people and animals. FOUR PAWS has dispatched emergency response and disaster relief teams to many areas around the world to help animals in need after natural disasters. We have provided food, medical care, and our expertise to help rescue and care for animals and reunite pets with their families.

 It is from this experience that we know that nothing can replace preparedness. Each one of us has the power to plan ahead BEFORE a disaster strikes ensuring the safety of our family and our pets.
