As hurricane season approaches, Noah’s Wish, an organization that exclusively rescues and shelters animals in disasters, is urging horse owners to take steps before a catastrophic situation to reduce the chances of loss, injury, or death to their animals. Because it is more difficult to move a horse than a small pet to safety, any disaster plan must reflect the specific needs of larger animals. By assembling a disaster kit and putting an evacuation plan into place, horse owners can go a long way in insuring the safe transfer of their animals.
