It seems timely with the start of this year with the bushfire disaster enveloping Australia, that we discuss how to organise an evacuation kit for your animals.
These kits should be made up and ready to go prior to an emergency so you are able to evacuate quickly without leaving anything important behind.
Here's what you should pack:
We always hope we would never have to use the evacuation kit but it is best to be prepared!
Minipet is thinking of all the people who have lost homes and pets in the current bushfire crisis - much love to all.
Measure for a Collar To measure for a collar or bandana, you need to measure your dog or cats neck. (Just like measuring for a shirt.) Place a tape measure around their neck allowing two fingers to slip under the tape for comfort. |
How to get the correct harness size You need to measure the chest behind the front legs to get the sizing. Place a tape measure behind the front legs around the chest. Use that measurement to select the size from the shopping cart. For example: If your dogs chest is 49cm then he needs the medium in the soft harness. |
How do I measure for dog clothing? To measure for dog clothing, measure the length of your dog's back, neck and chest (if applicable) and take note of the measurement. If your dog is in between sizes, we recommend choosing the smaller size, otherwise, it may be too baggy. As each of our design collections has different measurements, be sure to read the specific sizing specifications of each product carefully. |
