VCA Animal Hospitals announced that select VCA hospitals in
Central Texas are offering free boarding assistance for small
animals, including dogs, cats, birds and pocket pets to families
who are impacted by the Bastrop County wildfires that have
endangered hundreds of homes and forced families to evacuate.
"Our thoughts are with the many families in Central Texas who
are being impacted by the wildfires," said Art Antin, Chief
Operating Officer of VCA Animal Hospitals. "We are extending free
boarding for family pets that have been displaced so families can
feel confident their pets are safe and focus on their priorities
during this critical time."
Boarding assistance at participating Central Texas VCA hospitals
is based on space availability. Pets should be current on
vaccinations, but in case they are not, VCA veterinarians will
update vaccinations free of charge. VCA Hospitals will also offer a
free health assessment exam for pets that have been evacuated or
displaced as a result of the fires. Pet owners are encouraged
to contact the American Red Cross or any one of the following VCA
hospitals for boarding assistance and more information.
