Veterinary Care:
- RedRover Relief: Financial assistance grants for emergency veterinary care. Applications accepted online (please note that our office is closed October 9-12 and applications will not be available during this time. We will resume accepting and reviewing applications on October 13).
The Red Cross Emergency app can help keep you and your loved ones safe with real-time alerts, shelter locations and safety advice on wildfires. The Red Cross First Aid app provides instant access to information on handling the most common first aid emergencies. Download these apps for free by searching for “American Red Cross” in your app store or at redcross.org/apps.
For those evacuating pets, large and small, the American Red Cross recommends keeping current photos of you with your pet in the event the animal gets lost, and holding onto information about feeding schedules, medical conditions, behavior issues and the name and number of a veterinarian.
