TGIF!! Good Morning Everyone, we are a little late with our blog this week as the chaos in California has taken over our lives, the worry for our friends and family in Los Angeles who are thank goodness safe, the sharing all the information on social media non stop has kept me really busy although I have taken Nili to the park daily to get off electronics and give her a break.
Are you prepared for a Natural Disaster? That is my question for the week.
Climate change is really happening, I know there are people that do not believe it but it is happening. I am looking around the world as to what is happening and it worries me and we should be doing everything in our power to save the planet for future generations.
I look at California, in the past month we have had tornado warnings, tsunami warnings, the horrific fires in Los Angeles and this morning we were woken to an earth tremor here in San Francisco. I think it is the third or fourth in the past month.
So, we should all be preparing especially as our pets depend on us and make sure we have an emergency bag to go with everything needed. This is what I have in mine and am always worried I do not have enough for Nili. I have started vertigo so my balance is off especially when stressed so have put all in a light weight suitcase so I can push or pull it which will help my balance plus Nilis’ carrier fits on the handles as I do not want her to walk on the debri an hurt herself.
The plus with this carrier is that it expands so that I will have room to stretch out plus Mom can put a water bowl or food in it. She would keep it closed for carrying but once in a safe place she would expand the sides and front. It also has a strap in it so she can strap me in, and I cannot run. It would give her peace of mind. You can see it on this website plus all their other products :
I personally think this is the best as they are comfortable and not cramped
In our bag we have Boxes of Water, Poop Bags, Food for both of us, Treats, Flashlights with batteries, sleeping bag for Mom, toys for me of course, Leash and harness with ID tags on, and BOL some coffee for Mom, and most important a first aid kit for both of us. Passport or some form of ID, Medications, my supplements including my Relax from Real Mushrooms; you can find them on this link and are fantastic, you have a 10% discount with coupon LaylasWoof.

The food Mom has for me is air dried kibbles with all the nutrients from YumWoof, you have a 5% discount with coupon YUMNILI

mine mine mine, you cannot have, Nili
We also have a wallet with cash in just in case ATMs are not working so I feel Mom has covered everything. If you think she has forgotten something, please tell Mom so she can add it to our bag. I also keep my phone charged so that it will be charged if I must grab it and go out.
We are praying for all our friends in Los Angeles, praying for the safety of all the wild animals and strays, please join us in these prayers as everyone needs them at this moment,
Take care and be safe
With a woof and love from
Nili

Great and very timely information! I really love the carrier. A grab-bag or go-to bag is really critical. Waiting until the last minute is never a good idea. Great checklist for the first aid kit as well. I know the fires are stressful. I’m glad you are taking breaks from the news with Nili. That’s a very good thing. Henry says Nili needs another cookie. 😉
Terri thank you, we all need to be prepared all the time and the carrier is amazing and so safe plus light weight so easy to carry. It is so stressful what is going on and worries me also although am taking breaks in the dog park which relaxes me and thank goodness it has been sunny. Nili woofs Henry needs a bully stick to chew on BOL
Have a wonderful week
All excellent tips. We do hope everyone stays safe, esp in the CAL fires. We hope you and Miss Nili are safe and far away from the fires.
Sharing this to help others….
Dorothy thank you and we are safe and far from the fires. I appreciate you sharing as the more we are all prepared the safer we will be. Have a wonderful week
