While the issue of evacuating pets has garnered increased attention in recent disasters, there remains a significant gap in local and national systems for managing and accommodating animals during emergencies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll Creatures Safe and Sound is a comprehensive examination of the shortcomings in our disaster response that sheds light on how individuals and communities can effectively manage pets during emergencies, spanning from the household level to the broader, national scale. Authored by Sarah DeYoung and Ashley Farmer, this book offers practical disaster preparedness tips while delving into the social complexities that impact disaster management and animal rescue. It traces the developments in pet management since Hurricane Katrina, including an analysis of the 2006 PETS Act, which mandates the inclusion of animals in hazard and disaster planning. Other chapters delve into policies for sheltering and evacuation, animal welfare coalitions, organizational coordination, decision-making, preparedness, the role of social media in animal rescue and response, and how privilege and power shape disaster experiences and outcomes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy drawing upon data collected from seven significant recent American disasters, ranging from Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Florence to the Camp, Tubbs, and Carr Fires in California and the Hawaii Lava Flow, the authors provide valuable insights into both the successes and failures of animal care. All Creatures Safe and Sound also outlines the necessary changes that need to be made to ensure the safety and well-being of pets, livestock, and other companion animals during times of crisis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in animal welfare, disaster preparedness, and community resilience. It serves as a reminder that our actions can have a profound impact on the lives of animals and that by working together, we can build stronger, more resilient communities that are prepared to face any challenge that comes our way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 x 33 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781439919743\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sarah E.
