Have a Plan to Keep Your Pets Safe In Case of A Fire

3/15/2022 (Permalink)

It is easy to worry about the damage that a fire can do to your home or possessions.  Anyone in your family could be exposed to soot during or after a fire, including your pets.  Once everyone is out of the house safely, and the fire is out, you can focus on getting your pets cleaned up. 

If your pet has been exposed to soot, they could ingest it if they try to clean themselves, so it is advised to bathe them as soon as possible. If you suspect your pet is sick from inhaling smoke you should try to get them to a veterinarian for medical assistance. 

Soot removal inside the home should take place as soon as possible after a fire.  Leaving it untreated, can give soot the chance to stain your valuables, and spread through the entire home.
