VIP Petcare Services Shelter Support Program

If you’ve adopted a pet from an animal shelter or rescue group in Northern California sometime in the last three years, there’s a good chance that your pet came home with one of our VIP cat carriers or dog leashes. VIP Petcare Services donates these materials to every local animal shelter and rescue group within our coverage area.

In 2010, we donated over 50,000 carriers and 50,000 leashes to these groups. These items are used to help lost cats and dogs get home, or to find new homes. Shelter staff and rescue volunteers are hard-working folks that spend their days (and often nights) fighting for animal welfare. Through this program we have been able to give back to these people, and the communities that support us. Too often these organizations don’t get the recognition or thanks that they deserve. They tirelessly battle animal homelessness, disease, neglect and abuse.

Please join us in supporting your local animal shelters and the hundreds of rescue groups that operate locally here in California. If you know of a local animal group that is currently purchasing their own cat carriers or leashes, please have them contact us to become part of the program.

If you've received one of our cat carriers you may have noticed that there is a game printed on the box. The challenge is to find all 30 kitties that are trying to find their way home. When you think you've found them all, click the link to see a cheat sheet and double-check your work!
