FEMA advises public to prepare pets for natural disaster
American families may be prepared for a natural disaster but are their
pets ready? September is National Preparedness Month sponsored by the United
States Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and
the organization is urging the public to prepare in advance for all types of
natural disasters.
“You should do the basics to prepare for hurricanes or any other type of
disaster – be informed, make a plan, build a kit and get involved,” FEMA Region
6 Administrator Tony Robinson said in a September 8 press release. “We
encourage you to take things one step further and make sure you are financially
ready too.”

While some parents may be excited to send their kids back to school canine companions may not be so willing to lose the company. When summer's spent frolicking together are suddenly over and the kids start riding the bus again some dogs begin to suffer from a common ailment among pets in America.
In a September 3rd report by Sue Manning of The Associated Press, Dr. Nick Dodman of Tufts University’s Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine in Massachusetts states that nearly 20 per cent of the United States’ 80 million dogs suffer from separation anxiety.
It is something familiar to the many pet parents with full time jobs. However after months of companionship with the kids on summer break dogs get into a routine that is hard to break. This stress and anxiety can lead to destruction and bad behavior.
Happy Caturday everyone!

Cats make such wonderful, long-term companions and
can live well over 20 years. Crème Puff is the oldest domestic cat on record lived three days
past her 38th birthday and still holds the title as oldest cat to
date. She was born on 3 August 1967 and died on 6 August 2005
