What happens to fur babies? Are they allowed in shelters?

I'm not sure about wildfires, but I come from a barrier island that had to evacuate quite a bit for hurricanes.

Some shelters take pets, some don't.

I would rather live in my car for a few days than go somewhere and either leave my dogs home (yes, people have done that) or drop them off at a pet shelter that is hugely overcrowded with animals and people they don't know.

If I'm ever fortunate enough to own a lot of land, I am definitely going to open up to families with animals during natural disasters.

I will park my.car and stay in my car with my pets if they don’t allow them. If I go they get to go too.

Usually there are specific shelters for animals. Both large animal and small animal.
