Should i take my pets with me if evacuated from the flood zone?

Yes, take your pets: Yes, take your pets with you. If it is not safe for you, it’s not safe for them.

Floods: Floods are New Zealand’s number one hazard in terms of frequency, losses and declared civil defense emergencies. Floods can cause injury and loss of life, damage to property and infrastructure, loss of stock, and contamination of water and land. Getting ready before a flood strikes will help reduce damage to your home and business and help you survive. http://www.getthru.govt.nz/disasters/flood/
