Protect your pets and livestock during hurricane season
Hurricane season is here, and the most important thing to remember is that pets, horses, and livestock need to be part of your family's disaster plan. If you're told to evacuate, take your pets with you. Never leave them behind. The best time to prepare for a hurricane is before there's a storm in the Gulf. Have a plan, have supplies ready, and make sure every member of your family (including the four-legged ones) is included in your evacuation plan.
