Sick or Injured Animals
American Animal Hospital Association, AAHA Helping Pets Fund
http://www.aahahelpingpets.org/
(866) 4HELPETS
The heartbreak happens all too often. A pet owner is unable to afford treatment and their sick or injured companion animal
pays the price. If the owner is elderly, disabled or on a fixed income, the cost of care may be too much of a stretch for
their pocketbook. Perhaps they have been victimized by crime, property loss or a job layoff and are experiencing a temporary
financial hardship? Making it too difficult to afford pet care. And some animals, brought to clinics by Good Samaritans, don't
have an owner to pay for treatment. Whatever the situation, the fact remains the same: When sick or injured animals are unable
to receive veterinary care, they suffer. Through the AAHA Helping Pets Fund, veterinary care is possible for sick or injured
pets even if they have been abandoned or if their owner is experiencing financial hardship.

owners cannot afford expensive surgery or emergency vet visits. Companion animal owners must often make the difficult
decision to put an animal down or neglect urgent medical needs because of the costs involved. The purpose of the
Pet Fund is to work towards a future where decisions about companion animal medical care need never be made on the
basis of cost.
