By eHow Pets Editor

Instructions

Things You’ll Need:

List of Pet-Friendly Hotels
Medication
Toys and Treats
Leash or Collar
Crates
Water
Rabies Tag
First-Aid Kit
Recent Photograph of Your Pet
Medical Records

Step 1:
Search for pet-friendly hotels before leaving home. Make a list of hotels and their phone numbers so you can make arrangements. Most disaster shelters will not allow pets inside so you will need alternate places to stay.
Step 2:
Gather your pets' health information and put it in a safe place in your car. You may need shot records, a recent photograph and any identification.
Step 3:
Put together a small first-aid kit for your pets. Include any special medication that your pets may need. Don't forget heart worm and flea medicine.
Step 4:
Pack a two-week supply of food for your pets. You will also need to bring clean water, perhaps in gallon jugs, for your pets.
Step 5:
Take along the basic things you need everyday for your pets such as leashes or collars, favorite toys, treats and beds.
Step 6:
Bring crates for your pets. Also, if you must stay in a shelter you have a better chance of bringing your pets along if they are in crates rather than loose on a leash.
