Emergency Preparedness Playbooks

Accepted Public Donations

At the Paws Claws and Talons Foundation, we rely on the generosity of our community to keep our Escape-Hatch Harvest emergency kits fully stocked for companion animals, small mammals, and exotics. If you would like to support our mission by donating new or gently used supplies, we are currently accepting items for our three core playbook categories.

For our four-legged family members, the focus is on security and comfort.

We are looking for donations of:

  • High-strength leads and harnesses that stand up to the stress of moving
  • Collapsible, easy-to-clean bowls
  • Portable, cozy mats that give pets a consistent home feeling even in a new space
  • Two-week supplies of healthy pantry fuel
  • Bags of bravery bites from our Morsel Menagerie to keep spirits high

Small Mammal Playbook (Rabbits, Ferrets, Rodents)

Small friends need big support, especially when it comes to their environment.

We welcome donations of:

  • Secure, ventilated travel habitats
  • Necessary bedding to keep them clean and dry
  • Water bottles or feeders that do not tip over
  • Specialized supplies of high-fiber staples and fresh forage to keep digestion happy and steady during transitions

Exotics & Scaled Friend Playbook (Reptiles, Amphibians, & More)

Moving with exotic companions can be tricky, so we aim to provide reliable temporary setups.

We are currently accepting:

  • Compact, efficient heating and lighting gear that works in temporary setups
  • Transport-safe containers that hold humidity and temperature perfectly
  • Species-specific diets, whether that is specialized pellets, high-protein mixes, or other specialized nutrition needed to help unique friends feel right at home
