If you are a pet owner, it is important to know and understand that pet survival kits are an essential component to emergency preparedness. It is not at all uncommon for products that are designed for natural disasters, pandemics, and weather emergencies to be marketed to consumers. However, it is not often that pet survival products are marketed. However, if you own a pet, it is important that you know that humans are not the only types of life that needs to be protected during the event of an emergency. Pets are often considered to be part of a family unit, yet when a disaster of some form strikes, many pet owners take it for granted that the pets that they own will survive the event. This is an extremely unfortunate fact. Pet survival kits will assist in the pet's ability to live and recover from the emergency that has transpired.

Pets are often hailed as one of the most enjoyable and entertaining aspects of a family unit. Various types of creatures provide their owners with a tremendous amount of joy and contentment. Many pets offer protection to those that live in the home. There are many pets that have the capability of comforting their owners. Above all, these animals provide their owners with companionship and loyalty. Pets do not ask their owners for a thing, but they provide all that they have to their owners in a very generous manner. Pets are heavily dependent upon those that elect to raise and keep them. They depend on people to provide quality care, comfort, as well as nutrition. Despite the fact that many owners know and understand these facts, pets are often forgotten completely in the event of an emergency or disaster situation.

One of the most beneficial things that you may do for your pet is to ensure that you invest in their safety and security. While human survival is extremely important, it is important to prioritize pet survival as well. There are several different types of pet survival kits available on the market today. Not only are these effective in preventing emergencies that could affect your pet's physical health, these products are designed to also handle basic emergencies that may occur to your pet so that further injury or sickness is limited until appropriate medical care may be pursued.

Pet survival kits will help you do just that.

   What items should be in a hunters survival kit? Serious woodsman or woodswomen only?
   I ask only because I keep maintain and use my survival kit on a regular basis. The most dangerous hunts I do are hound hunts where I wait for fresh snow and head for the highest altitude I can drive to then hike in on foot. Also these hunts are done at night. I have spent many nights in the cold looking for my hounds and making my way back to my truck. Anyways I recently looked online for a list of items and could not find anyone who had a good list. The reason I say this is either they have way to much to carry, or not enough to survive, and lastly not one single kit contained toilet paper. Not one! I don’t go in the woods with out TP. I call it mountain money. All kidding aside though, what is in your backpack and what activity do you participate in that requires you to have such a kit? Can you carry your bag comfortably over miles of rough country with no roads or trails? I have found that my pack has evolved over the years and varies slightly from season to season. Oregon hunter

   What to put in a survival kit?
   So, my friend and I are doing something for this class and we have to make a survival kit in a basic backpack and aren’t allowed to have like a man-made tent or anything. So, what would we put in it.

   What does Calvin’s (Calvin and Hobbes) wilderness survival backpack consist of?
   He had a pack…with random stuff in it, like a map of Montana, a rock…he had an umbrella, too. Hobbes mentioned “everyone should carry a kit like this!”

   What should you have in your survival backpack/kit?
   If I want to go camping for example, or simply do a “wilderness survival” thing for maybe a week. What should I bring in my backpack?

   To go camping for a week and to do the “wilderness survival” thing for a week generally two very different things.

   Going camping for a week means going and relaxing in comfort. You will have your tent, sleeping bag, full cook kit, enough food for the period of stay, fire making equipment, lantern, etc. It can weigh from 25 lbs to a hundred or more.

   Doing the “wilderness survival” thing generally means some discomfort because of limited equipment. However, you utilize all of your survival gear to see if it really works and how proficient you are with it.

   For a survival backpack/kit, you will want the following items:
   Three types of fire starters
   Something to use as shelter or fashion a shelter (i.e. a tube tent, etc.)
   Something to sleep in (i.e. emergency bivy sack, etc.)
   Some high energy food
   Food producing equipment (i.e. fishing kit, snare material, etc.)
   Light weight cook kit
   Stove? It would have to be very light and use readily available fuel such as wood if carried at all
   First Aid Kit
   Knife
   Axe or Saw
   Minimal clothing
   Sewing/repair kit

   This list should get you started.

   Good Question — as with lots of outdoor stuff, this all becomes personal preference and needs.

   I hunt in Virginia (not too far from humans EVER), and in Colorado where you can still get pretty remote. Also, I am a physician and prior military survival instructor, so my kit is probably weighted (literally and figuratively) differently than others might be.

   As you often hear, the first tool of survival is your brains — starting there, everything else is pretty much optional.

   In Mine:
   Water or way to purify water. I carry iodine tablets
   Waterproof matches
   Signal mirror
   whistle
   Toilet paper – in a zip-lock bag
   space blanket
   a fairly advanced medical kit (this is more for if I come across someone needing help)
   several pairs of pocket hand/toe warmers — the chemical kind that just start to get warm when you take them out of the pack
   about 20 feet of 550 army parachute cord

   Other things not in kit but they always go with me:
   food – snacks and usually a denty moore beef stew with a pop-off lid.
   GPS with extra batteries — don’t forget to mark the trailhead before you start of into the backcountry
   cell phone (often I am where there is no signal, but sometimes hilltops can get a weak signal)
   LED head lamp
   Knife – I carry 2. One large (Buckmaster — the knife I got for survival school in 1986 and it is still a great tool) one small (a Gerber multitool – knife, pliers, saw, etc.).
   I almost always carry a firearm of some kind — even when I’m just hiking
   some type of waterproof outer shell
   hat

   A great reference is FM 21-76. It is the military Survival manual. Not something you can pack when you’re on foot, but it’s a great reference and kind of fun to read. It has improved a lot since my first copy. I teach my son a few things out of the manual each time we go camping. He thinks we’re just doing cool “outdoor” things.

   Good first aid kits that are light and complete for the non-medical person are Adventure Medical Kits — google them — many variations to fit your needs.
