While firemen attempt to get pets safely out of burning structures, they are not able to revive them unless they have the proper equipment. These masks work well because they are small, and are designed to fit over snouts. Even birds, hamsters, or snakes can be placed inside the masks.” Anyone interested in donating a set of oxygen masks to his or her community is invited to contact Devereaux at CAA at (201) 706-7666. The $100 tax-deductible donation includes: three oxygen masks (small, medium, and large); oxygen tubes for each mask, one O2 Fur Life carry bag (for storage and mobility), a laminated instruction sheet (includes ABCs of CPR for cats and dogs), a kennel lead (for animal restraint and control), two “Pet Oxygen Masks on Board” decals (for display on vehicle and in depart- ment), a PowerPoint presentation for personnel training, an instructional DVD “Pets Need Oxygen Too” (one per order); two animal incident report forms for first respond- ers; and a pet rescue notice form. One of the goals of Companion Animal Advocates’ humane education program is to make sure every town in Bergen County is equipped with a kit so pets are protected in case of an emergency. So far this year, CAA has donated more than 114 sets of pet oxygen masks throughout Bergen and Passaic counties. Companion Animal Advocates is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Bergen County. CAA is dedicated to the welfare of companion animals through programs designed to keep pets in their homes and reduce pet over- population.
