Do you ever need to leave your pets at home alone? While we always expect to return home to greet our furry friends, life can be unpredictable. An accident or a medical emergency can leave us incapacitated, unable to explain that our pets may need someone to look after them.
In this situation, every pet owner should have one or more designated pet emergency contacts. A pet emergency contact is a trustee with a house key and the knowledge of how to take care of your beloved pets.
The Pet Emergency Contact Card is an indispensable tool to let anyone know your pet is home alone whenever you’re unable to disclose that information yourself. The Pet Emergency Contact card is a business card-sized contact sheet that fits in your wallet. In case you get in an accident, get sick or injured, and are unable to communicate, your Pet Emergency Contact card will save your pet’s life! First responders will spot your Pet Emergency Contact card and can alert your pet emergency contact person.
The Pet Emergency Contact card is a noticeable, red card with all the information you need to communicate in an emergency. Big, bold letters in the front notify that you have a pet at home alone. The back of the card contains the emergency contact information, including the type of animal, name of your pet, your pet’s emergency contact name, and their phone number and email. With this card, you can rest assured that your trustee will be looking after your furry friend when you’re unable to do so yourself.
We recommend that every family member carries a card with them. In addition, you should place a card in your car and at your workplace. Emergencies are unpredictable; make sure your Pet Emergency Contact card can be easily seen.
