What is a PDSA PetAid practice?
In communities too small for a PDSA PetAid hospital, PDSA has arranged for over 349 local private veterinary practices to provide free PDSA-funded treatment on its behalf. These are called PDSA PetAid practices. Treatment to the sick and injured pets of eligible clients is completely free of charge. But because PDSA’s veterinary services are funded entirely by public support, all owners are encouraged to make a contribution towards the cost of their pet’s treatment, in order to enable PDSA to continue its valuable service. Who qualifies for treatment? Each PDSA PetAid practice has its own catchment area, defined by local postcodes. The charity cannot register pet owners who live outside these specific areas for free treatment. PDSA can only register clients who are in receipt of Housing Benefit or Council Tax Benefit (Council Tax exemptions are not the same as Council Tax Benefit and do not qualify).
