Pet Assistance Programs
Financial hardship or an expensive veterinary procedure does not have to mean giving up your pet. There are clinics that offer veterinary services at a reduced cost, as well as programs that can help with the cost of pet food, spaying/neutering, and veterinary care.
The local and national pet assistance programs are operated by volunteers and funded through donations; because of this there may be a delay in response and/or limited funds, it is recommended that you pursue all options you may qualify for.
