In Case You Missed It
IMPORTANT UPDATE: A faster, easier way to request Emergency Veterinary Care

To better support pets and their guardians during urgent medical situations, Feeding Pets of the Homeless has transitioned to an online application process for Emergency Veterinary Care. This update helps improve access, reduce delays, and allow our Case Managers to review requests more efficiently.

Why we made this change:
-24/7 access to submit an Emergency Veterinary Care request
-Applications are reviewed in the order they are received, helping ensure a fair and consistent process
-Reduced wait times and less back-and-forth, with key information collected upfront
-More efficient care coordination, allowing our team to focus on urgent needs

What to expect
Applications can be submitted at any time. Reviews and care coordination take place Monday through Friday, 8 am to 4 pm PST.

If your pet is sick or injured and you need assistance, begin the process at: petsofthehomeless.org/emergency-veterinary-care
All eligibility information and next steps are outlined at the start of the application.

Need help accessing the application?
If you or someone you are assisting has limited internet access, any public libraries, shelters, and community resource centers offer free computer or mobile access. A trusted advocate or case worker may also help complete the application. PLEASE SHARE!
