ACT Pet Crisis Support is there to provide one-off assistance, to help pets and their owners when no one else can. The aim is to avoid economic euthanasia for pet owners who love their pets and don't want to lose them, but are faced with a medical emergency that they cannot afford or get finance for. We do not cover routine health needs such as desexing, parasite control and vaccination. More information for vet clinics can be found on our FAQ page. 

Please answer the following questions when considering partnering with us to help a pet and their owner:
  • Is this condition something the pet owner is unable to save up for?
  • Is the condition causing suffering to the animal (or pet owner)?
  • Have they been declined for VetPay? (Please ask the pet owner to apply for this first, they may be able to make a partial contribution). 
  • Have they exhausted other options such as borrowing from friends/family?
  • Do you feel their pet has a reasonable prognosis if treated? Would they be likely to live for more than a year?
  • Is the condition something an average owner would treat? 

If all of the above are a big ‘YES’, this is where ACT Pet Crisis Support can assist. Please complete the application form below and we will respond to you as quickly as possible. We have two different categories of assistance, depending on whether the amount requested is over or under $250.

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING FORMS ARE FOR VET CLINICS ONLY. If you are a pet owner, please visit your vet and ask them to apply on your behalf. If you are unable to find a vet to help your pet, please click the button below.
