🚨 Important Safety Alert 🚨
With the cyclone on its way, we want to make sure your pets, livestock, and little critters stay safe and sound! Here’s what you can do to keep everyone safe and calm during the storm:
For small animals:
✅ Bring them inside. Create a comfy, quiet space for your pets inside. Storms can be a bit much for them, so it’s best to keep them out of the chaos.
✅ Double-check your pet’s ID. Make sure their microchip is up-to-date and that they have a collar with your details in case of an emergency escape.
✅ Grab their favourite blanket or toy and make their safe space as cozy as possible.
✅ You’ll want at least 3 days’ worth of food, water, and any meds they may currently need.
For large animals:
✅ If possible, bring them into sturdy, secure shelter away from trees or structures that could collapse.
✅ Ensure animals have enough bedding in their shelter to help them stay comfortable and warm.
✅ Don’t let your livestock near flood-prone areas or streams that may overflow during the cyclone.
✅ Make sure there’s plenty of clean water available.
✅ Double-check all fencing and gates to ensure they’re secure.
✅ Have an emergency first aid kit on hand, including medications, wound care items, and any special needs your animals have. We’re open 24/7 for emergencies, but we might be delayed in getting out to you.
Some general tips:
✅ Stay Calm. Animals pick up on your anxiety, so try to remain calm and reassure them throughout the storm.
✅ If you're evacuating, make sure to bring your pets along. Have a carrier or travel box ready for each pet or animal.
✅ Don’t forget, we’re here in case of emergencies 24/7. Call us on 3425 1544. We’re here to help, though access may be restricted or delayed due to the weather.
We know it’s a stressful time, but with a little prep, you and your animals will be safe and sound. Stay safe, look after your pets, and let’s weather this together! ❤️🌪️
