Prepare a kit for at least three days of emergency supplies

Three-day supply of bottled water (one gallon per person per day)
First aid kit and essential medicines
Three-day supply of packaged, dried and canned goods
Portable radio and flashlights with spare batteries in waterproof bags
An extra set of car keys, cash and credit cards
Special items for infants, elderly or disabled family members
Planning ahead for seniors and people with disabilities
If you or a loved one in your household has specific mobility, hearing, learning, seeing or mobility needs, and/or require certain medical devices due to a medical condition, consider any relevant items you need to add to your kit, such as:
Extra batteries for hearing aids and other medical equipment
For evacuation, familiarize yourself with your house or building complex. Practice using each of the possible evacuation routes and check for obstacles or other impediments that may be present such as debris, flooding, loss of electricity or smoke. Call 911 for emergency evacuation assistance.
Pets and Service Animals
In an emergency, any animals in your care are dependent on you for their safety. It's important to take pets and service animals with you. If you can't get home to look after your pets, have a backup caregiver you trust and give them a key. Make sure that cats and dogs are wearing collars and identification tags that are up to date. Put your cell phone number on your pet's tag as well as the phone
number of a friend or relative in case you can't be reached on your phone.
Include supplies for your pet in your emergency kit. Depending on your pet, useful items might include:
Leashes, harnesses and/or carriers to transport pets safely.
Food, drinking water, bowls, cat litter/pan and a manual can opener if your pet eats canned food.
Medications and copies of medical records.
Current photos of you with your pet(s) in case they get lost.
Information on feeding schedules, medical conditions, behavior problems, and the name and number of your veterinarian in case you have to foster or board your pets.
Pet beds and toys, if easily transportable.
You can always speak with your veterinarian about items to include in your kit. Remember to make plans for all the animals in your care, including any horses and farm animals.
