Talk to your veterinarian about microchipping and enrolling your pet in a recovery database. 5. **First aid kit.** Cotton bandage rolls, bandage tape and scissors; antibiotic ointment; flea and tick prevention; latex gloves, isopropyl alcohol and saline solution. Including a pet first aid reference book is a good idea too. 6. **Collar or harness with ID tag, rabies tag and a leash.** 7. **Crate or pet carrier.** Have a sturdy, safe crate or carrier in case you need to evacuate. The carrier should be large enough for your pet to stand, turn around and lie down. 8. **Sanitation.** Pet litter and litter box if appropriate, newspapers, paper towels, plastic trash bags and household chlorine bleach. 9. **A picture of you and your pet together.** If you become separated, a picture of you and your pet together will help you document ownership and allow others to assist you. Add species, breed, age, sex, color and distinguishing characteristics. 10. **Familiar items.** Familiar items, such as treats, toys and bedding can help reduce stress for your pet. share this post [![5 Essential Tips for Classic Car Maintenance & Preservation](https://stories.simplyioa.com/hubfs/5-Essential-Tips-for-Classic-Car-Maintenance-%26-Preservation-Blog.jpg)](https://stories.simplyioa.com/5-essential-tips-for-classic-car-maintenance-preservation) ##### [5 Essential Tips for Classic Car Maintenance & Preservation](https://stories.simplyioa.com/5-essential-tips-for-classic-car-maintenance-preservation) For many enthusiasts, classic cars are more than just vehicles; they're rolling pieces of history.
