We just had a fire scare at our apartment. The main fire alarm went off, so I went out to the hallway and noticed a lot of smoke coming out from the units upstairs. It started coming down to the first floor pretty quickly. My boyfriend and I found all the things we could to carry our pets. We had two small pet carriers- one for the baby chameleon and one for the baby milk snake. one small trash can for the bearded dragon. and an emptied art supplies bin for the leopard gecko. I carried my older chameleon out and our tarantula’s enclosure is small enough to carry on its own. We sat in the car with the heat going until the fire department gave us the ok to go back in. Luckily there was no fire, someone’s oven just burnt something pretty bad. But it made me start to think about emergency plans for reptiles. Does anybody have any ideas? What do you guys have set up for your reptiles in cases of emergency? I want to create emergency carriers for them just so we don’t have to resort to rushing around the apartment finding random containers to put them in. Maybe get them each their own small pet carrier with those pocket hand warmers on deck in case there’s a situation where we’d have to evacuate for a long period of time.
