SafePet is here today to share information about this vital program. There are many types of violence in a home, sometimes directed at the pet as well as other family members.

There are occasions when caregivers need to leave quickly to get out of a very serious and violent situation or the pet caregiver has to be removed and settled into a shelter or other environment. What happens to the pet/pets left behind who often become the focus of abuse. That’s where SafePet comes in. They work directly with the frontline professionals in these cases to educate them so that they understand and make arrangements for these pets that the victims and families don’t want left behind. Foster, donate, become informed so that families fleeing violence do not have to make these choices.
