Promise to Prepare: Emergency planning for pet parents
When an emergency strikes, there’s no time to waste — and that includes making sure your furry family members are safe. That’s why the Ontario SPCA and Humane Society, in partnership with the Ontario Association of Fire Chiefs, is encouraging pet parents to take part in Emergency Preparedness Week, happening May 5–11, by making a plan that includes their animals.

Emergency Preparedness 72-Hour Survival Kit
Take the time to put together a survival kit containing everything you, your family and your pets will need in the first 72 hours of an emergency. You should check your emergency kit twice a year and update it as necessary.
Window decals and wallet cards
From May 1–10, stop by your local Ontario SPCA animal centre to pick up a free emergency decal and wallet card, while supplies last. The decal alerts first responders that pets may be inside your home, and the wallet card informs emergency personnel that animals may need care if you’re unable to return home. These small tools can help save lives in a crisis.
