Hi All,
I disappeared after Hurricane Harvey. So much has gone on. First, I live in Dickinson, TX and Hurricane Harvey flooded our city, it took out a lot of homes and we were at one point on national news. To this day the city is still repairing. We were on National News for being hit. We've repaired well though!!!!!!
My Husband, myself and our pets did SO WELL!!! Our home only took on some water in the garage. Family members? Well many were heavily impacted, many family members and friends in the community, we've been busy. We volunteered, and helped family too. My fids did great. We had soooo much going on though.
Here is a summary:
1. I ended up in the ER prior to the hurricane landing. They fixed me up.
2. Our neighborhood flooded so bad our house was an island, we were blessed, only water in our garage, not much damaged.
3. Our local weather app wouldn't let us sleep due to the volume of weather issues, that was good, we were aware and vacated. Our weather app updated every few seconds of a threatening issue.
4. There was a mandatory evac for us, we got the FID TRAVEL CAGES PREPPED AND TRANSFERRED THE FIDS TO EACH OF THEIR TRAVEL CAGES.
I express this because if you have FIDS, you need this for your FIDS, individual travel cages if they do not get along!!!!! This is important.
5. All fur babies and FIDS were loaded in our vehicles, (I have a 2017 Tundra Crew Cab), we fit ALL babies in it, in travel cages and on the floor in the backseat area WONDERFULLY!!!! All travelled well, in EXTREMELY HIGH WATER, no water touched them, nor my flip flopped toes. I love flip flops!
I remember the night we got to friends', I was still under hospital care, my fids were well and happy, we covered them to calm them this includes Buddy my CCA, Buzz my CAG, and my PRINCESS VENUS, my Female Ekkie, the QUEEN!!! They did so well. I slept so hard that night, so much going on. Remember I had a personal ER event the day before.
We did so well, we were so blessed and we went out to help other family and friends. The Fids were save, high ground. Also, hurricane water is sooooo coooollllddddd, I had to be warmed. My Husband and I had to carry pets through 6 - 8 inches of COLD, FRIGID FEELING water to get fur and fids into our truck. When we got to our friends with all fur and fid babes, got them settled we passed out, so tired. We all did great.
