The Pet Emergency Complete Guide — Aging Parents & Pets
A complete guide for adult children helping aging parents care for a pet. If something happens to your parent — a fall, a hospital stay, a sudden move — this guide walks through every decision you'll need to make.
What's inside:
• The emergency plan card every household should have on the fridge
• A 10-minute conversation script for the talk no one wants to start
• The 3-day pet go-bag checklist (FEMA-recommended)
• Fall hazard fixes that prevent pet-related falls
• What to do when the vet bill is more than you can cover
• Sources from the CDC, FEMA, ASPCA, and the U.S. Surgeon General
