Don't forget to prepare your
larger animals for a disaster.
- Water: The average horse consumes 8-10 gallons of water per day; have at least a 48 hour
supply available.
- Hay/grain: Enough for a 48 hour period. Try to keep your horse's diet consistent as
abrupt diet changes can lead to colic.
- Extra halter with name, address, phone number, and emergency contact; extra leads.
- Leg wraps.
- Copies of current immunizations; photos (front, rear, left and right sides). Description
of horse, noting any tattoos, microchips, distinguishing marks, age, sex, breed and color.
- Basic first aid supplies (i.e., Silvadene cream, Betadine solution).
