EXTREME WEATHER ALERT
FOLLOW THESE TIPS TO KEEP PETS & STRAYS SAFE & WARM DURING EXTREME WEATHER
KEEP PETS INDOORS
Pets should not be left alone outside in freezing weather.
DESIGNATE A SAFE SPACE INSIDE
Place potty pads inside for pets who will have difficulty going outside in harsh conditions
KEEP THEM DRY
Ensure paws & fur are dry after walks in rain or snow.
USE SWEATERS
Short-haired dogs would appreciate the extra warmth!
DON'T FORGET THE STRAYS
Leave hay or straw outside to create a safe space for any stray furry friends to find shelter through extreme temperatures.
BEWARE OF CAR HAZARDS
Never leave a pet inside a car unattended, clean up lethal anti-freeze leaks, & tap the hood of cars to keep stray cats and wildlife safe.
KEEP WILDLIFE SAFE
During hard freezes, wildlife struggle to find unfrozen water. Help by setting out a shallow dish of warm water with rocks at the bottom.
AVOID OUTDOOR FIRE PITS OR BONFIRES
To prevent injured wildlife.
IF YOU FIND WILDLIFE FROZEN TO THE GROUND
Do not pull them off. This could lead to injury. Slowly pour warm water (not hot!) around the animal until it's free. Do not offer food or water. If you do come across wildlife needing help, please contain them in a secure container with a dry, soft clean cloth.
