Yeah that really sucks. :(

I've also seen people recommend the AirGuard - AirTag protection app (created by a team from the Technical University of Darmstadt in Germany), but that's probably also only for Android...

If you can find some sort of Bluetooth tracker in your app store, that might be a viable option. I've never used an AirTag before so I'm only going off of articles I googled, like this one.

Love this!!! My cat is my world, so I have a very similar set up to you! The only thing I would say that I have extra, which could be stored in your car or wherever you choose, is a small foldable portable pet play pet, such as this: https://www.chewy.com/furhaven-soft-sided-dog-cat-playpen/dp/225344?utm_source=google-product&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=16403238651&utm_content=FurHaven&utm_term=&gbraid=0AAAAADmQ2V0QxUiol2s4p5BlpqemDNTFx&gclid=Cj0KCQjwm6....
Mine is big enough that I can actually fit inside it with her ( I’m short). But the goal is that if we get stuck somewhere she isn’t limited to her crate. And, I can feasibly get in there with her and sleep or play.

For a more budget/bulk friendly option, there are basic pregnancy test strips (most I've seen are $20-$30 for 100).

These are the same type of pregnancy tests that are used in clinics and in doctors offices. Like all pregnancy tests, there's a chance for false negatives and false positives, but these are cheap enough that you can take them regularly without breaking the bank!

Sorry the link didn’t work.

Don’t worry about ugly! You can get like photo storage boxes that are cute. Or some of the little collapsible bins. Like these and you could put things like packets of stuff.

I like metho stoves a lot- no breakable parts, easy to come by fuel, and most importantly- you can easily see how much fuel you have left and conserve accordingly, unlike gas cannisters.

I like my Evernew titanium cook set which is small for single person and can use metho spirits, hexi tablets or wood. It all fits into the mug, even my matches. It doesn't simmer though- the purpose is to heat a cup of water. So it's perfect for making a hot drink, soup or one cup meal.

I have also discovered a good tip for small fuel bottles- I use an old lawnmower oil plastic bottle- it is heavy duty. I have also previously used old nail polish remover bottles as they don't leak and are sturdy. Do not use soda bottles as they are easily mistaken for a drink, especially when you're tired and not thinking straight.

Here's what I got. There are times when I just cannot get warm, and these are great. I also got one of those giant wearable blankets, also recommend. I have a big old house, and I really don't like spending the money to heat the whole thing. I try to keep it in the low 60s, and I don't heat some of the upstairs rooms. As long as I'm warm, and the pets are comfy, that's all that matters! https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07TW53G7G/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_QCEY68SFMX1VTFVPGBMT?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

In addition to the stuff you and EgoDeathCampaign have already listed, assuming this is an All Season Car Emergency Bag (not including cold emergency kit for Canadian winters):

*A wall-plug/USB converter and cord that works with her phone (she may get to a populated area and need to recharge from the wall) *Make sure the multitool has scissors and tweezers, if not include tweezers for sure *In the first aid kit, make it a little more than a boo-boo kit and include butterflies and iodine swabs...the q-tip ones suck, these are godly for field medicine (source: have Wilderness First Responder cert and use these things constantly) https://www.amazon.com/First-Aid-Only-Iodine-Swabs/dp/B002A62ZH8 *Snacks are specifically high calorie dense food, like jerky, protein bar, etc. *Gum, if she likes it *Headlamp *Mylar emergency blanket *Travel-size bottle of sunscreen *Bandanna *Water

I'm stymied on the self-defense aspect, though. Not knowing the actual route, and how remote or populated it is, it seems like the ideal would be to get to the closest populated public area and call someone trusted for pick up, rather than hitching, which for a single woman is highly undesirable.
