June is National Safety Month-Pet Fire Safety

6/21/2016 (Permalink)

Pets can causes fires just like people. According to http://www.nfpa.org/public-education, pets account for starting approximately 700 home fires per year.  Pets knock things over, bump into things and are just plain curious.  This could lead to fires.  It is important to keep our pets away from candles, space heaters, electrical cords, cooking devices and more.  When planning your household escape plan, remember your pets. With that said, in an actual fire event, never go back inside for your pets once you are out safely.
