September is National Preparedness Month, and it's the perfect time to 'start a conversation' about preparing your animals for emergencies. Do you have a pet like Posey at home—a little critter with hooves or another animal that's a bit more challenging to load up than a dog or a cat? Now is a great time to make your plan and begin preparing. If an evacuation order or warning is issued, it’s essential to have a way to safely get your animal into a crate and to a place of safety. And if you have a youngster, like Posey, it's the perfect time to train them with treats and get comfortable with a crate. This little piglet gets an A+ for cuteness, but more importantly, she’s learning to be ready if disaster strikes. Take the time this month to train your animals, so you’re both prepared when it counts. Learn more at www.napacart.org #Napa #NationalDisasterPreparednessMonth #NapaCounty
