I'm not in their catchment area.
Anyone any ideas where i can get help with costs for vet fees.

Not being funny but ask at the vets.

Vets are closed at the moment!

pp some vets accept the rspca vouchers and i think you either only pay a third of the bill or you get a third off

Rocks i think they have stopped the vouchers from RSPCA

Why have a pet if you can't pay vet fees or take insurance out?

The reasons for this can be many and varied. Please think before you post.

.....

Why?..well usually money isn't a problem for my pets,but unlucky for me i'm on benefits at the moment and my dog took seriously ill this morning,i knew it was going to be mega bucks at my private vet so i thought i'd ask for help with some of the costs if i could.

Insurance will not cover my dog cos of underlying health problems ....she's a rescued abuse case.

Hope that helps

oh, we have another Judgemental One. Very helpful.

where abouts are you?
im in wirral and would qualify if i was on benefits have just checked there eligabilty page and they showed up some vets to use?

good luck

Unfortunately there are no PDSA PetAid hospitals or practices in your local area. (CH62) I'm in CH44 so right next to the tunnel

Where can I get help for my pet?

You will need to contact a local private veterinary practice to receive treatment for your pet, a list can be found on the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons website or Yell.com.

If you are in receipt of Housing Benefit or Council Tax Benefit* PDSA may be able to make a contribution towards outstanding veterinary costs. This is referred to as PDSA PetAid request service.

For further information, you or your private veterinary practice, may contact PDSA on 0800 731 2502 during the hours of 9.00am to 5.00pm Monday to Friday.

*Please note that only Council Tax Benefit can be accepted. Other reductions in Council Tax e.g. single person discount, second adult rebate and council tax exemption do not qualify

*Please note that PDSA only treats 1 pedigree pet per household.

What else can I do to care for my pet?

You may also like to consider a Pet Insurance policy to ensure you have peace of mind and your pet has the protection they need. PDSA Petsurance offers great value protection and there are three levels of cover for vets' fees for accident or illness (per condition) from £1,000, £2,000 or £5,000.

Hi Ed,thanks for posting that info up.

As soon as PDSA said "can't help" i contacted my old vets Allport,explained i was short of cash,being a long time customer they said not to worry and i could pay the bill next month.

So thanks to them and good old bank of mum for saving my doggy.

Very pleased that things worked out ok for you - and of course doggo! I'm sure he/her won't be short of the vital tlc !!

God Bless the Bank of Mum/Dad.

Thanks Pinz x
