From: City of Inverness

Invisible Fence of Florida donated 12 life-saving pet oxygen masks to the Inverness Fire Department to  help reduce the number of pet fatalities from fires.

Each year. It’s estimated more than 40,000 pets die in fires, most succumbing to smoke inhalation. These masks are designed specifically for dogs, cats, and other small animals. If treated quickly with proper equipment such as these pet oxygen masks, many pets have a greater chance of survival. Each Inverness fire apparatus will be equipped with several pet oxygen mask kits.
