Baby and pet checklist
DRAFT: This checklist is waiting for review. Figures and wording may change before launch.
Babies and pets need a few extra things on top of your main household supplies. Be Ready suggests keeping supplies for 3 days. Tick off what you already have and keep it with the rest of your kit.
Tips
- Check formula and food dates every few months.
- Keep a copy of the vet’s number and vaccination record in your grab bag too.
For your baby
- Ready-to-feed formula Be Ready says this is best, as you may not be able to boil water
- Bottles and teats
- Nappies
- Baby wipes
- Nappy bags
- Spare clothes and warm layers
- Comfort item For example a favourite toy or blanket
- Baby medicines you normally use Ask a pharmacist if you are unsure what to keep
For your pet
- Pet food
- Bottled water for your pet
- Food and water bowls
- Lead, harness or carrier
- Copy of vaccination record
- Vet's phone number on paper
- Pet medication
