Financial assistance w/pets

Some of these are area-based, some restricted to service animals, low-income, etc. I haven't checked out all of these links, but thought with all the pet-lovers here, someone might get some good from this:




1. For IMOM.org ( In Memory of Magic)
In Memory of Magic (IMOM)
Helping people help pets. To better the lives of sick, injured and
abused companion animals. Dedicated to insure that no companion
animal has to be euthanized simply because their caretaker is
financially challenged.

http://www.imom.org/

The following instructions are for general emergency funds (also for
cancer)

Just fill out the general fund application and submit it.Go to the
main page, click on financial aid then scroll down to the bottom
and click on Getting Started, read all the information there and
make sure you copy the intro letter and contact your vet for them
to fax their estimate to them, then click on IMOM policies at the
bottom and then on the next screen at the bottom click on General
Emergency funds and the application will come up.

2. For fveap

Feline Veterinary Emergency Assistance
Provides financial assistance to cat and kitten guardians who are
unable to afford veterinary services to save their companions when
life-threatening illness or injury strikes.

http://www.fveap.org

http://www.fveap.org/sys-tmpl/door/

"Seniors, People with disabilities, People who have lost their job,
Good Samaritans who rescue a cat or kitten - any of these folks may
need financial assistance to save a beloved companion.

The Feline Veterinary Emergency Assistance Program is a nonprofit
501(c)(3) organization that provides financial assistance to cat and
kitten guardians who are unable to afford veterinary services to
save their companions when life-threatening illness or injury strikes."

3."Care Credit"--they offer promotional things such as 0% interest on
large vet purchases and it takes about 2 minutes to apply for it.

It's called Care Credit, and their website is here:

http://www.carecredit.com/patients/whatis.htm

Care Credit
CareCredit, offers interest free loan plans (for a specified
timeframe) with a low monthly payment for Veterinary Medicine. These
plans can be very helpful and are much lower in cost than credit
cards, bank loans, etc.

medical care of pets whose owners are unable to afford the expense.
