GET HELP

We understand the comfort and love that your pet provides. If you are homeless and need help for your companion pet, we may be able to assist you in getting food for your pet, emergency veterinary care, and wellness care.

Emergency Veterinary Care

If your pet is experiencing an illness or injury, Feeding Pets of the Homeless may be able to help through our Emergency Veterinary Care program. All requests must be submitted through our online application. Applications are reviewed by a Case Manager to determine eligibility and available funding. If approved, a Case Manager will guide next steps and help coordinate care at a participating veterinary clinic. Payments are made directly to the provider. Any contribution you are able to make toward the invoice is appreciated.

Important Information

Applications are reviewed M-F 8am – 4pm PST. Requests submitted after hours or on weekends will be reviewed the next business day.

For emergencies that cannot wait, seek immediate care or contact organizations listed on our State and National resources pages.

Pet Food

We have partnered with Pet Food Providers across the nation that include food banks, pantries, soup kitchens and shelters. If you need food or supplies for your pet, please search our resources map for a Pet Food Provider near you and call to see if they have supplies on hand.

Other Resources

When Feeding Pets of the Homeless® cannot help, we will direct you to one of the many other organizations that may be able to help with your individual needs. Many organizations have specific missions and criteria that need to be met to qualify. Some resources are specific to breed. Local animal shelters or local chapters of the Humane Society may also be able to help, or know of other organizations local to you. Many SPCA’s offer low cost or free spay/neutering and vaccines.

Hi, my name is Udonathan Mothra, but my family calls me Udon.I'm a 6-year-old tabby cat living with my family in Kentucky. We are currently experiencing homelessness, but we are facing each day together. I spend my time keeping my human brother company while my mom works hard to find us a safe and stable place to call home.One day, I started having trouble going to the bathroom. I was straining to urinate, and soon there was blood in my urine. My mom had seen these symptoms before with another cat and knew I needed help right away.She reached out to Feeding Pets of the Homeless and completed an application for assistance. After a brief review, I was approved to see a veterinarian.The vet ran tests and confirmed I had a urinary blockage that required emergency surgery. Thankfully, they were able to get me into surgery quickly before my condition became even more serious.Now I'm back with my family, getting plenty of rest and feeling better every day. Having my mom and brother by my side has made all the difference.Thanks to supporters like you, Feeding Pets of the Homeless contributed $800 toward my veterinary care.A message from my mom:"He's definitely back to his old happy self. You wouldn't even know how sick he was. My son was so happy to have him back...Thank you so much for saving his life."Your support helps pets like me receive lifesaving veterinary care and stay with the families who love us most.Lend a paw to help the next pet in need.
