Last year the Governor of the State of Nv. made it mandatory for all agencies involved to develop disaster plans that included people's pets. No one, by law, can be compelled to leave their pet behind in case of an emergency evacuation. Nevada did it after our elected officials saw what happened with the Katrina evacuees. Start bugging your elected officials, everyone could use this kind of protection! Brenda, Momma to the FurpeopleWeyr http://pages.prodigy.net/furpeopleweyr/index.html [Posted in FML 5710]
