When a pet’s life is on the line, VEG Cares gives us another way to say yes.
VEG Cares helps provide lifesaving emergency care to pets whose families have exhausted their options for paying for treatment, giving them hope when they need it most. Your generosity gives VEG teams another way to say yes, helping more families bring their beloved pets home while also supporting shelters, rescues, and communities affected by natural disasters.
We work with the Veterinary Care Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, to collect and distribute funds for all of our hospitals and the communities we serve. This partnership allows us to guarantee that 100% of donations go directly to helping people and their pets when they need it most, because every dollar represents another chance to keep a family together.

Here when families need us most.
When your pet needs emergency care, the last thing you should have to worry about is whether you can afford to get them the help they need. VEG Cares helps make emergency veterinary care possible for families facing financial hardship.
Through VEG Cares, eligible pet parents may receive financial assistance toward the cost of emergency treatment. Our goal is simple: to help remove financial barriers so more pets can get the care they need, when they need it.
Because no one should have to choose between their pet’s health and their ability to pay.
