Your animals rely on you to protect them during a disaster or emergency. The best thing you can do for yourself and all your loved ones, is to be prepared.
The EvacSak provides a way to quickly get your pets ready for evacuation!
First, identify the types of emergencies and disasters that you could possibly face. Do you live in an apartment? Do you often take your pet with you in the car or RV? Are you a roadside animal rescuer? Do you live in a flood zone, fire zone or an area known for tornados, hurricanes, typhoons or earthquakes?
Considering all the possibilities will give you an idea of the number of plans you need to devise. It is important to include all family members (human and animal) in your preparedness efforts. Identify together what is truly important and then devise a plan to see to it that those things are protected.
In the event that your animal is displaced due to an emergency or disaster, there are several well-equipped, animal related organizations that will provide you with support. It is important to acquaint yourself with the services in your area as well as the services provided by national animal rescue groups.
The best case scenario is to avoid emergencies and disasters all together. The next best scenario is that you exit with all that you value—at your side.
Be smart. Be safe. Be prepared.
About the EvacSak
The original EVACSAKTM made its debut in the Midwestern United States in 1992.

Today the EVACSAKTM boasts many needed improvements making it an even more valuable tool.
Each EVACSAKTM is compact when stored, easy to access, easy to use and able to be carried "hands-free". The sturdy mesh fabric offers ample ventilation while the bright colors and new, reflective components add visibility. Additional features allow information to be kept with your animal, aiding in the communication process between owners, rescuers and support staff.
