Getting Help

For a lot of general help about caring for animals, please visit the national RSPCA website - see our front page.

We can help you in several ways. To qualify for the following assistance, you must live in Herefordshire, be receiving a means-tested benefit, and show us proof of this. We then give you a voucher that your vet will accept towards the cost of treatment. Your vet should have an application form.

• If your pet needs medical treatment and you can't afford to pay the full vet's bill, we can probably contribute to the cost.
• We can probably help with flea and worm treatment for your pet.
• We can probably help you have your cat or dog neutered to avoid unwanted offspring.

If you know of an animal that needs a new home, we may be able to help. Please remember, though, that we do not have unlimited resources. We will do all we can, but can't work miracles.

We can help you have your pet microchipped so that he can be traced if he gets lost. We charge a low fee of £12 for this, to cover the actual cost of the chip.

There may be other ways too that we can help.

Please see our contact page for how to reach us.
