Here are some ways homeowners and businesses can protect themselves before and after a disaster. Before a Disaster. 1. Make plans to secure your property (install hurricane clips and storm shutters, cut overlying branches, clear rain gutters, turn off water, gas and electricity, and lock all entry points). 2. Review your insurance coverage. Make a copy of your insurance policy in case you need it to file a claim. Make copies of your important papers (identification cards, insurance policies, prescription medications). 3. Create your emergency financial first aid kit. Make an inventory of your personal property (home, car, jewelry, computer, appliances, and furniture). Photos and videos are a good way of documenting your property. 4. Make sure you have a 14-day supply of rations (bottled water, non-perishable food items, medication). 5. Make an emergency kit (battery powered radio, first aid  kit, blankets, clothing, personal hygiene supplies, a small amount of cash). 6. Make a plan for your pet (not all shelters welcome pets). Have enough food and medication for your pet and don't forget their ID tags, collar, and leash.' Website URL at bottom: cca.hawaii.gov"&gt;
