Here is some help for those who need help with emergency vet services. DO NOT let your pet suffer!!

This information is for both rescue people and individuals. I’m posting a list of organizations that may be able to help in times of emergency when the difference between saving your pets life is the difference in whether or not you can pay the vet bill.

Note: these organizations help only in EMERGENCY situations – not for people who can’t or won’t provide basic care – although I think there are some organizations listed here who provide help to special needs people, like elderly who are on fixed incomes.
