Here is a list other ways you can receive Veterinary Financial Assistance.
Other owners have found resources like PayPal fundraisers, Facebook fundraising, GoFund me campaigns and using Facebook as a platform to ask family and friends to donate to a PayPal, Venmo or Cash App account have all been methods others have found helpful in raising extra funds needed for additional vet care.
You can also join the “PASS program Austin Pets Alive! Texas only” page on Facebook. Make sure to email them to request crowd-sourcing on their page, as this has proven helpful as well. Look under the Veterinary Assistance section of the following Google doc for links to their email, care credit, scratch pay and crowd-source funding:
