I hope this idea really catches on. When a major storm or wildfire forces evacuation, people could bring their pets with them and while they stay in the shelter, the pets would be safe in the mobile shelter.
I still think I would want to sleep on the floor in the place my pets are rather than leave them. During a winter power outage, my pets were a few houses away with a friend/neighbour who still had power. I was with them much of the time, but it was still terrifying. As soon as the power came on I took them home even though it was already the middle of the night. I just needed us all to be together in our own home.
I can't imagine what it is like to lose the home and everything in it. Having the pets safe would be the greatest comfort possible.
