❄️The upcoming, dangerous cold snap can kill.

👉Take precautions for domesticated animals now!

If you can take your chickens/birds/rabbits/ and any other small animals inside until the cold snap passes, please do. Elderly, newly born, and debilitated animals are ESPECIALLY SENSITIVE!

We've heard people saying they don't want the mess in their house, but there are lots of ways to accommodate your animals creatively so they don't suffer and die.

For farmed animals that can’t get brought inside, provide as much warm dry bedding as possible and keep cleaning and replenishing. And for those people who only clean their coops a couple times a year (besides the fact that it's gross) we suggest you get out to your barns now to clean and bed them down with fresh, thick material ASAP!

Large animals like equine and ruminants will survive more easily if they have access to:

*fresh warm water
*salt
*a TOTAL BLOCK from any wind in a dry shelter with bedding like shavings and straw

💨 WIND WILL KILL IN ARCTIC TEMPERATURES

Dogs and cats who are forced to stay outside WILL FREEZE TO DEATH. Get them inside NOW!

If you're worried about an animal in your community please start your advocacy right NOW, as authorities will most likely be inundated and it may take quite some time for a response. If you don't get a response that you think makes sense- climb the communication ladder. Need help? Contact us!

The state regulations for care and shelter of animals is grossly inadequate-- even in the best of weather animals are afforded very little and in times like these THEY NEED YOU TO WATCH OUT FOR THEM!

👉Do what you gotta do to make sure animals in our communities aren't left to suffer.👈
