MONTHLY NEWSLETTER
April is Pet First Aid Awareness Month and the American Red Cross has an app
and online class to help pet owners know what to do in an emergency until veterinary care is available.
DOWNLOAD THE APP
With the free Pet First Aid app it’s easy to learn what to do if an emergency affects your pet.
It provides access to expert guidance on how to maintain your pet’s health, what to do in emergencies,
and how to include pets in your emergency preparedness plans.
The app will also help owners keep their pets safe by learning what emergency supplies to have,
when they should contact their veterinarian, and where to find a pet care facility or pet-friendly hotel.
Users learn how to assemble a pet first aid kit and an emergency kit.
Recommended items include leashes, food, water, toys, medical records and an animal carrier for evacuation purposes.
Owners also have access to step-by-step instructions, videos and images for more than 25 common first aid
and emergency situations including how to treat wounds, control bleeding,
and care for breathing and cardiac emergencies.
Other features in the app allow pet owners to:
- Create a pet profile including tag identification number, photos, list of medications and instructions.
- Use the list of early warning signs to know when to see a veterinarian.
- Find emergency pet care facilities or alternate veterinarians with the ‘animal hospital locator.’
- Test their knowledge with interactive quizzes and earn badges that they can share on their social networks along with their favorite picture of their pet.
