Familiar scents and landmarks have changed, which may confuse your pet. Keep pets indoors as much as possible. Make sure dogs are on a leash when going outside. Cats are always safest indoors.

If your pet has not eaten for a long period of time, offer small servings until they regain their appetites. Allow pets to rest and recover from the trauma. Give them time to settle back into their routine. If you have LOST your petvisit animal shelters EVERY DAY and post flyers of your missing pet.
