Emancipet Nonprofit Pet Clinics Can Provide Free & Low-Cost Vet Visits
One of the reasons people are surrendering pets — besides the high cost of food and pet supplies — is the inability to afford ordinary veterinary care much less a crisis. It’s a terrible feeling knowing your pet needs basic veterinary upkeep and there’s nothing to be done about it because there’s no money to cover it. Many people even see to their pets’ welfare before their own because our furry pals bring so much to the table and we can’t imagine life without them. Who wants to be broke or borderline...
Save Money: Preventative Care Can Be You and Your Pets’ Best Friend
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Those wise words are attributed to Benjamin Franklin, and in essence, they mean that it’s easier to stop something from happening in the first place than to repair the damage after it has happened. If you wish to keep your pet around for as long as possible and avoid or reduce costly vet bills, preventative care is a good place to start. Doing so can potentially lengthen lives, improve the quality of time spent with us, and save money in the long run. Photo: Pixabay/Alexas_Fotos Pet Food...

These Innovators Are Working To Make Veterinary Care More Accessible To All
Veterinary care is expensive, and can be hard to access—leading to pets going without needed treatments, and being given up to shelters by their families, who believe this is the only way for a loved pet to get the care they need. The Open Door Veterinary Collective is working to change that. This nonprofit, founded in 2021, is developing a business model for nonprofit, for-profit, and government veterinary clinics that prioritizes access to care, and increased revenue. Open Door sees major upsides for shelters and the communities they...

Veterinary Financial Support
by The Ozzy Foundation
Financial Assistance | Veterinary Care |Health care decisions for your pet should be based on quality of life, not finances. The Ozzy Foundation was formed with this belief in mind, to help pet guardians with the financial costs of veterinarian bills and provide a supportive place for those caring for a chronically-ill pet. In November 2006, our cat, Ozzy, who was 4½ years old at the time, was diagnosed with kidney failure.
