VCA Animal Hospitals announced that select Northern California
VCA hospitals are offering free boarding assistance for small
animals, including dogs, cats, birds and pocket pets, to families
who are impacted by the wildfires burning in the Santa Cruz
Mountains. The blaze, about 30 miles south of San Jose, has forced
hundreds of residents to evacuate.
“Our thoughts are with the many families who are being impacted
by these devastating wildfires,” said Art Antin, Chief Operating
Officer of VCA Animal Hospitals. “We are extending free boarding
for pets that have been displaced by the fires so families can be
assured their animals are safe and be able to focus on their
priorities during this critical time.”
Boarding assistance at participating Northern California area
VCA hospitals is based on space availability. Pets should be
current on vaccinations, but in case they are not, VCA
veterinarians will update vaccinations free of charge. VCA will
also offer a free health assessment exam for pets that have been
evacuated or displaced as a result of the fires. To check
availability for boarding assistance, visit
