Do any of you know about low cost/free vet care in the metro? I have a neighbor that has pets which need health care. I want to give the some info on assistance programs to help, but I haven’t been able to find much.
They have a dog that lives outside under a trampoline and I’m worried he may be dealing with flystrike. I’m sure he isn’t vaccinated.
They also have cats that aren’t spayed/neutered and frequently end up with kittens. One looked in bad shape and they told me it has seizures. When I asked about their vet, they told me that had someone coming by to look at her. No idea what that meant.
I’d rather not have to call Animal Welfare services if I don’t have to, but I will. I like animals more than people.
I’ll take any recommendations or suggestions you have!
Not sure about free, but if you can get to Ray County Animal Hospital in Richmond, heard it has decent prices. KU recommends Humane Society of Greater Kansas City or Lawrence Humane Society as lower-cost options, but if you can get to K-State University or University of Missouri, they may have programs as part of their vet schools for lower-cost care. Best of luck for you and the animals!
I forgot about the university programs. Great idea!
