What Do I Do With My Pet During A Weather Emergency?

While Milford emergency shelters are able to accommodate pets, here's a list of other options for your four-legged friends if you have to leave your home and you're not going to the public shelter.

 

When your family members include the four-legged variety and there's a storm headed our way, thoughts naturally turn to how to keep pets safe.

Woodbury, CT Fire Chief Janet Morgan said because Hurricane Sandy is not a subdegree zero storm, she advises the following.

"It's really best if pets can stay in the home rather than be in a cage at an unfamiliar location with animals they don't know," she said.

For the full list of pet friendly hotels, visit the Pet Welcome website. Some hotels charge extra fees when you bring pets and restrictions may apply, so calling ahead is wise.

I don't mind more pizza if its good pizza. There are plenty of horrible and so-so pizza places inRead More Milford. Currently 314 B-port Ave is a boarded up building with a parking lot where cops love to sit. Either this will prevent cops from sitting their or will cause them to sit there more. Also ladies, Milford is known for its P's: pizza, porn, package, and pawn.
