I was recalling that after Katrina people had to locate their pets. I wrote my address on harnesses in permanent marker and I put harnesses on my cats. I am not on Facebook but I would like to ask someone who is if they would pass this suggestion on to Facebook. It might help avoid a lost pet. If we have to evacuate having a leash and harness on them will be helpful.

Great advice!!! Pets are part of our families as well.

Our dogs are chipped so they'll find us.

Check the chips periodically. DGD took a lost cat to the vet. Cat was chipped but chip was broken.

great advice; I don't know about any other areas but here there were several shelters that were pet friendly so that was good. I was lucky and didn't have to leave my house for the past two hurricanes and this one I only lost power for a few seconds so my animals were with me but I feel for the ones who can't. I also know that it isn't that much to have chips put under thier skin and it helps so much
