Abstract: HERNANDO, ARLA PATRICIA B. Disaster Preparedness of Pet Owners Based on their Experience During the Taal Volcano Eruption. Undergraduate Thesis. Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. Cavite State University, Indang Cavite, May 2022. Adviser: Dr. Alvin William Alvarez, DVM This study aimed to understand pet owners' preparedness in the event of disaster based on their experience and action during the Taal Volcano eruption and aimed to provide current data to support further research on companion animal emergency disaster management that may enable pet owners and emergency planners to enhance the protection of companion animals during a disaster. Decisions about evacuation for pet owners varied based on the amount of time given to evacuate the residence, the location of the participant from the center of the disaster, and their capability to bring their pets along with them. The unavailability or insufficiency of pet care support during disasters had a significant impact on pets, particularly those abandoned during disasters, and this emerged resulting in the government's lack of emergency preparedness to address these kinds of events. Furthermore, the study showed that animals are less prioritized during disasters, placing them in significantly greater danger than people.

may enable pet owners and emergency planners to enhance the protection of companion
animals during a disaster. Decisions about evacuation for pet owners varied based on the

the disaster, and their capability to bring their pets along with them. The unavailability or
