      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Talk to your pet's veterinarian about emergency planning. Discuss the types of things that you<br />
should include in your pet's emergency first aid kit. Get the names of vets or veterinary hospitals in other<br />
cities where you might need to seek temporary shelter. You should also consider talking with your<br />
veterinarian about permanent identification such as microchipping, and enrolling your pet in a recovery database. If your pet is microchipped, keeping<br />
your emergency contact information up to date and listed with a reliable recovery database is essential to your being<br />
reunited with your pet. Gather contact information for emergency animal treat&#173;<br />
ment. Make a list of contact information and addresses of area animal control agencies including the Humane Society<br />
or SPCA, and emergency veterinary hospitals. Keep one copy of these phone numbers with you and one in your<br />
pet's emergency supply kit. Obtain "Pets Inside" stickers and place them on your doors or windows, including<br />
information on the number and types of pets in your home to alert firefighters and rescue workers. Consider putting a<br />
phone number on the sticker where you could be reached in an emergency. And , if time permits , remember to write<br />
the words "Evacuated with Pets" across the stickers, should you flee with your pets.]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[The most basic technique to improve flow is to use linking or transitional words. You can simply add words such as then, next, nevertheless, also, rather, therefore, but, or and near the start of sentences, or use them to join sentences. These words not only link text, but they can introduce the purpose of the following phrase and show its relationship to the previous text. ]]></content:encoded>
