This is the way the world ends. This is the way the world ends. This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but with a whimper. |

However we have an indoor-outdoor cat that would be telling us to head to Vegas while he keeps an eye on the neighborhood. Out of the dozens of pets I've had, Id believe him.

They not only cool you off but your pet too. Also, cooling mats are a good idea for your pets. Be prepared and stay safe. |

I looked around on some forums...looks like people put their small animals in the car and go. That's good. I didn't think people would leave their little friends to die. |

User ID: 74832867 United States 09/12/2018 04:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What to do when you have 40 head of cattle and 50 chickens? We are not in the path but living in Florida the need could arrive. We have a good friend who has land that is one of the highest points in Florida. If need be we would make a few trips with the cows and take the chickens last to stay penned up in the cattle trailer. Anyhow that's my plan if thing go awry here.
