The 20 VCA hospitals in South Florida have partnered to provide assistance to the Humane Society in a number of ways. Most importantly, a new HSBC adopter will now visit a local VCA hospital for the first 10 days after adoption, with no additional fee over the adoption donation. (VCA veterinarians will treat the animals for the following: colds or coughs; deworming; common skin problems; urinary tract problems; and vomiting and diarrhea, excluding Parvo virus. Also, post-surgery suture removal is now done at VCA locations.) If for some reason the animal needs to be hospitalized at that time, it will be done at a VCA hospital.

The Humane Society looks forward to a highly beneficial, long-term relationship with VCA. This partnership will allow us to help a larger number of homeless animals while offering quality care even after adoption. We’re grateful to VCA for coming on board.
