Why it matters
For many people, a pet is their only constant. They bring comfort, routine and love. But as the cost of living rises, more families struggle to afford even the basics.
Too often, people are forced into impossible choices: feed myself, or my pet? Pay the bills, or take my animal to the vet? We exist so that no one has to make that choice.
