Emergency Stash

[Mojo's Mom]

I'm planning on having an emergency stash of medicines and vitamins and that sort of stuff under the cabinet thing that I keep my tort's enclosure on. That way if ever I'm gone and something happens or something happens while I'm there we have stuff on hand, so we won't be shopping in Walmart or some place in the middle of a crisis. Of course we would call a reptile vet, but if we couldn't move Mojo because of an injury to get him in, and it was going to be a while before the doc could get there...

What should I include in my emergency stash bag?

Food-wise, a bag of some prepared chow they readily eat would be the best overall option.

As far as disaster planning- keeping them warm in a power outage, etc.- I am working on an article for the Library that should be ready soon.

That is fantastic, can't wait. Now as far as meds. Make sure anything you get has a long shelf life. Because, you know how it goes. If you are prepared, nothing ever happens
