VCA Animal Hospitals Offers Free Boarding for Pets Affected by Wildfires in Central California near Big Sur
SANTA CLARA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–VCA
Animal Hospitals announced that select VCA hospitals in Central
California are offering free boarding assistance for small animals,
including dogs, cats, birds and pocket pets, to families who are
impacted by the 51,000-acre Soberanes Fire that continues to burn north
of Big Sur in Monterey County.
“Our thoughts are with the many families who are being impacted by these
wildfires,” said Art Antin, Chief Operating Officer of VCA Animal
Hospitals. “We are extending free boarding for family pets that have
been displaced by the fires so families can be assured their pets are
safe and be able to focus on their priorities during this critical time.”
Boarding assistance at participating Central California 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.
