Planning for your Reptile Pets in Disasters

 
EVACUATING REPTILES
 
Transportation of small pet reptiles can be accomplished using a pillowcase, cloth sack, or small transport carrier. Transfer your pet to a secure cage at the evacuation site as soon as possible. In addition to the pertinent items listed under dog/cat evacuation kit, include essential dietary supplements, water bowl for soaking, spray bottle for misting, heating pad, battery-operated heating lamp or other appropriate heat source, extra batteries, and appropriate handling gloves/supplies.
