About Us
We subsidize emergency and urgent veterinary care for pets of people in financial need. Pet Assistance has its own 'trickle down theory': Help a pet owner financially and the benefits will trickle down to help animals and keep pets in their own homes where they belong... even in times of financial medical crises.
How We Got Started
Back in the "old days" a few volunteers at a local pound in New York realized that most pets were turned into shelters because people could not afford vet care. We started helping local people with low cost shots, spaying and medical care. We now serve pet owners nationwide with grants to help pay for emergency and urgent vet services.

The practice of veterinary medicine will soon be a monopoly in the USA. Mars Corp. (the candy company that makes food that gets us sick) bought VCA which owned early 1000 hospitals, already owned the Banfield chain and more.....probably 2000 at this point and they won' t stop. They own ANTECH LABS , sell "pet wellness plans" and I PREDICT they will buy up all the pet insurance companies....premiums will go up, deductibles will be increased. Pets and ordinary pet owners will be the losers The older, fabulous vets are retiring, and all the younger ones will probably sell out eventually given the opportunity...knowing they will not be able to compete. Mars will probably lobby for regulations or laws that smaller hospitals will not be able to meet. You heard it first here!
