Financial Pet Health Assistance Information

PAYMENT PLAN OPTIONS

When unexpected veterinary costs arise, we want to help keep pets in homes by offering you several creative payment solutions.

CareCredit is an alternative payment option that helps you pay for out-of-pocket expenses by extending special financing options to you that you can’t get when using your Visa or Mastercard. CareCredit allows you to make smaller reoccurring payments without interest – this gives you more flexibility than having to pay a large lump sum for services.

Scratch Pay is a payment system that offers 0-12 month repayment plans for as little as 5.9% APR. This simple, two minute application process can make the high cost of pet care more manageable. We got you and your pet covered.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR LOW INCOME FAMILIES

SPCA Tampa Bay Veterinary Center is proud to offer the Caldwell Keeping Families Together Fund. This income-verified discount program is available to low income families that are not eligible for CareCredit or Scratch Pay. This fund is supported by generous donors in the community that want to help keep pets in homes. Items not eligible for discount are medications, food and vaccines. If you would like to donate toward this fund to help keep families together, click here.

Emergency Transportation for Pets & Animals

For Your Pet

When cats, dogs and companion animals get sick or accidentally injured, it’s challenging to get them to medical treatment. As a for-all shelter our goal is to offer as many of our standard services as possible.

As of late March, our transportation services for your companion animal to be picked up by our staff and travel to its regular veterinarian or an emergency veterinary clinic for medical care has been suspended. These steps will help us protect the community and our staff from the potential spread of COVID-19.

If you need immediate assistance or questions please call 727-586-3592.

For Sick, Owned Pets

For information regarding sick or injured stray animals please visit our lost and found page or call 727-586-3592.

🐈 Time for a blood pressure check-in 🐈Just as in human medicine, it is important for veterinarians to monitor a pet's blood pressure - especially as they age. However, unlike humans, animals rarely have high blood pressure as a primary condition. This means there is almost always another disease causing the abnormal pressure. Routinely having your senior pet's blood pressure checked can help catch kidney failure or other diseases early and make treatment possible!

🤢 Hairballs. Just a normal part of a cat's life... right? 🤢Hairballs are NOT normal. We often dismiss feline vomiting because we assume "they ate too fast" or "they have hairballs all time". If your cat is vomiting regularly, it is important to have a conversation with your vet. Routine hairballs could be a symptom of excessive grooming (from anxiety or skin irritation) or an issue with their digestive track. More than 2 hairballs a year should be cause for concern. Routine vomiting of food could be a symptom of something more serious like parasites or sensitivities to what they are eating. If your cat begins to vomit large amounts over a short period of time, this is an emergency and you should seek medical care immediately.
