Hurricane Matthew Pet Preparedness
Prepare With Your Pets
As Hurricane Matthew approaches, we want to make sure that residents in all affected areas have the resources they need to protect their pets. Trupanion has information that you can share about hurricane pet preparedness, as well as suggestions for what to put in your pet first aid kit. We have compiled a list of pet-friendly shelters so that you and your animals can feel safe together.

Marissa knows almost every dog's name in the Trupanion office and is working on learning their owners' names. She is a lover of all animals but has a special place in her heart for anything with a long snout - she could spend all day watching videos of elephants, aardvarks, and tapirs. When not at work you can probably find her watching a soccer game, making short videos or searching for the greatest sandwich in Seattle.
