When you're creating emergency plans in case of a storm, tornado or other 
disaster, don't forget your furry friends.
Pets are not allowed inside emergency shelters, so if you're forced out of 
your home, you'll need a plan in place to take care of your pets.
The Cat Fanciers' Association offers these tips:

distinguishing marks. Keep the photos with other important papers, including 
vaccination records, and put them in resealable plastic bags that can be posted 
outside during rainy weather.
