So, we had some rather severe weather on Tuesday and there was a chance that we needed to leave our apartment for safer ground. Since our apartment complex doesn't have any basement area and we were having tornado watches/warnings we might have needed to head to my parents. They're only a few minutes away... but there's NO WAY I'd ever think about leaving the cats behind. It was then that it occurred to me that I didn't have anything to take for them. Thats when I decided to put together and emergency kit to keep in my trunk. So, do you all do this? Do you have a plan for emergencies? What is it?
I'm going to keep in my trunk a litter box, a bag of clay litter (good for snow too), some dry food, a few cans of wet food and a jug of water. Inside I always have their soft-sided carriers and would grab their favorite softees (stuffed toys) on my way out.
I'm wondering how long it's safe to keep the water and food in the car before it need to be replaced? Or if anyone has any other ideas for this?
