Just wondering...do you all have an evacuation plan if you ever had to leave your home? I have a plan in case of tornadoes and fire. But in the event I had to leave my home, my pets would be going with me!
The reason this came to mind, my husband and I recently bought a new truck, a little Ford Ranger. While considering buying it, one of my thoughts was, what if I had to evacuate and my husband has our other truck which is an extented cab? Can I get two cat carriers and two big dogs in the front of this truck? (we're not putting a cap on it, only a cover) I've got it all figured out that we will all fit!
Now you may wonder why I'd worry about evacuating? We live between two train tracks, which sometimes carry hazardous waste! The dogs are easy, throw a leash on them and get them in the truck. Well when I got Sassy I bought a cat carrier. Then when I got Missy, I bought another. I got laughed at by my family, friends and my husband when I said "what if a train wrecks?" ha ha ha they all laughed. Well one week later, a train derailed right up the road from my house! No injurys, no evacuation but boy did I get the last laugh!
It's a wonder I don't have a breakdown worrying about my furkids,but better safe than sorry!
