We would like to thank the "Association des lapins du Québec - Quebec Rabbit Association" for mentioning us in their post. The importance of having a pet emergency kit and an evacuation plan can be seen in the article found below:
"We remind you of the importance of preparing an evacuation plan for your rabbits in the eventuality of an emergency! 🚨
It doesn't matter, where you live in Quebec and the type of building, the preparation is to be put, since the goal is to leave the places as quickly as possible.
Don't forget to include these steps in your evacuation or survival plan in the event of a 72hours.ca natural disaster. 🇨🇦

Notify your neighbors and knowledge of confidence that have a key to your plan.
In order to help the intervention authorities, apply a sticker on all doors of your residence mentioning the number of animals. We also recommend that you have an easily accessible explanatory or booklet document with essential information about your rabbits!
Once outside the security perimeter, you can analyze the situation in order to bring rabbits in a temperate place the time to wait for the events.
