Just one-third of Americans have a disaster preparedness plan that includes their pet, according to new research. <br /><br />Conducted by Talker Research on behalf of Hill’s Pet Nutrition, the survey of 2,000 dog or cat owners revealed half of Americans (52%) believe natural disasters are unavoidable — and 29% find themselves losing sleep worrying about natural disasters and their homes.<br /><br />Despite this fear about the occurrence of natural disasters, less than half (45%) of respondents have a natural disaster plan in place, and even then, their plan might not cover everything important — including resources for their pet.<br /><br />The survey results highlight the importance of preparing for natural disasters during National Preparedness Month in September.
