Safe Place for Pets helps people who are terminally ill by finding homes for their pets. Founded by hospice nurses 28 years ago, Safe Place has an army of volunteers who place as many as 50 dogs and cats each year, which helps a lot of families going through a difficult time and a lot of pets leaving the only home they have ever known. We see to a pets’ dental and medical needs and give them time to heal emotionally, so they are ready to open their heart to a new home.
Safe Place relocated to a new home at Rockrimmon and Vindicator after losing our lease last year. Rent is higher but the community has been very welcoming. Outfitting our new home was expensive but the cats love it and so do our volunteers! Donor support ensures dogs and cats receive excellent medical and dental care and as much love as they need to regain their confidence after being separated from loved ones.
Medical and dental costs are high, even with the discounts Safe Place receives from our vet partners. Your support of this wonderful charity gives pets extra care, time to mourn a loved one and recover from the trauma of separation so they can secure a loving forever home!
Anyone who has lost a loved one knows it’s a difficult time for the family — that includes pets who are also confused and upset. But family are not always able to take over the care of a beloved pet.
