Refuge4Pets

All too often pets are used to manipulate victims of domestic abuse, whether through threat or actual violence. Most refuges and temporary accommodation are not pet friendly, meaning people will often choose to remain in a dangerous situation rather than be separated from their pet. Refuge4Pets works in Devon and Cornwall to provide temporary foster care for pets so their owners can access the services they need. The Pets Foundation gave Refuge4Pets a grant of £15,000 to pay for the veterinary care of these pets until they can be reunited with their family.
