VCA Animal Hospitals Offers Free Boarding for Pets Affected by Southern California Wildfires

VCA Animal Hospitals announced that select VCA hospitals in Southern California are offering free boarding assistance for small animals, including dogs, cats, birds and pocket pets, to families who are impacted by the 51-square-mile Sand Fire that continues to burn in Southern California's Santa Clarita Valley.

“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 feel confident their pets are safe and focus on their priorities during this critical time.”

Boarding assistance at participating Southern 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.
