Hi everyone,

A little over an hour ago we had a carbon monoxide scare. Levels weren't dangerous and we were allowed back inside, but while packing up our cats to evacuate (fire department told us to leave until they could check it out), we realized we weren't prepared to evacuate our two snakes (if the levels had been higher I would've gotten them out, by the way--it just would not have been anywhere close to ideal for the night. Didn't want to stress them out until we knew what was going on, and our own symptoms were very mild). It's very cold in our state this time of year.

What can we do to be prepared if this type of emergency happens again? How do you safely, securely, and warmly transport your animals in a situation where you'd have to leave quickly, and possibly be away overnight? Thanks.
