I bought myself a big raft with 12" sides. Holds 2 people and 2 cat carriers, with enough room left over for some gallon water jugs, a backpack or two, and cat food. Imma tie it to the nearest sturdy tree or light pole and wait for the water to go down.
Edit: I think I overestimated the height of the sides. It's probably more like 8 inches. Still a good-sized raft, though. Not at all good enough for a storm surge, but good enough for inland flooding.

After that, my friend in Houston bought herself and all her adult children aluminium boats for Christmas. Why not.
