6/20/2023 (Permalink)
Are your pets included in your fire safety plan? Our local in St. Clair Shores team responds to fire damage emergencies every year in Warren and we want you and your furry friends to be safe in the event of a fire. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) offers these pet fire safety tips to keep your pets safe around fire:
- Keep pets away from stoves and countertops
- Keep pets away from candles, lamps, and space heaters
- Always use a metal or heat-tempered glass screen on a fireplace and keep it in place
- Keep pets away from a chimney’s outside vents.
- Have a “pet-free zone” of at least three feet away from the fireplace. Glass doors and screens can stay dangerously hot for several hours after the fire goes out.
- Some pets are chewers. Watch pets to make sure they don’t chew through electrical cords. Have any problems checked by a professional.
