The cost of veterinary care has risen tremendously. While we help our qualifying clients to the extent possible, in most cases we aren’t able to cover the cost of the entire veterinary bill. 

There are various other sources of financial aid available and we’ve included many of them here for your convenience. We encourage you to apply to as many of them as possible to make paying for veterinary services more affordable for you.
