Something that we all need to think about.........The possibility of fire in your home when your pets are inside. The thought scares me to death. Recently on the news there was a story about a family who had a house fire. They were all able to get out but their cats were not. One cat waas saved by firefighters but 3 others died.
I also wrote a blog in December about memebers of my kennel club who were out on Christmas Eve when their house caught fire. They lost 14 show dogs. Only some pups and the mother were saved. This gives me pause to think; what can be done to minimize this threat to our pets. If they are in the house they will be trapped and most likely no one will know to look for them.
How about if we had a way to let firemen and neighbors know who was in there and WHERE? Well. they do this with kids so why not pets? What if we were to get window stickers that indicated that a pet or more specifically how many pets, were located in that room and put those on the outside of windows? 
I also think that a notice on the front door would be helpful. I intend to implement these ideas soon and you may wish to also. Most of us would be devastated if we lost our precious babies.
