I've been away for the past 2 1/2 weeks on vacation. For a few days, I thought that Bertha might try to ruin a much needed vacation but it was a great time for me to review my Hurricane Evacuation plans and make adjustments. I realized that my plans for one of my best friends, Buddy - a 2 year old Border Collie, needed to be improved. Buddy has a collar with his name and my cell phone embroidered. If we were to get separated, I would hope that someone would call me. Buddy also has a backpack with food, water, leash, seatbelt for the car, pet first aid kit, and snacks. Buddy is ready to move with a few moments notice. If you haven't thought of your pets in a disaster, please do so. Pets become disoriented and are often lost during disasters. If you have any questions about preparations for your pet, feel free to e-mail or call me. I'll be glad to help. warmest regards, your Red Cross Executive, Joy Branham
