MISSION - WHAT WE DO

2nd Chance 4 Pets is an all-volunteer nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization. Our mission is to reduce the number of pets unnecessarily euthanized each year due to the death or incapacity of the human companions who care for them. We provide pet owners, veterinarians and animal welfare organizations with comprehensive information and lifetime care solutions in an effort to ensure that pet owners have planned for the possibility that their pets might outlive them.

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

Our COMPANIONS FOR SENIORS program proposes an innovative approach to providing essential educational materials and resources for seniors who have a pet. We have established the following objectives: 1) to educate pet owners about the necessity to plan for the continuous care of their pets; 2) to provide comprehensive resources to pet owners and prevent their pets from ending up homeless should their owners predecease them or become too ill to care for them; 3) to address the issue of pet overpopulation in shelters; 4) to provide peace of mind to pet owners concerned that their pets might outlive them. The Program has been established by 2nd Chance 4 Pets to encourage seniors to include pets as part of their family and help them appropriately plan for their pet’s lifetime care. Seniors and the majority of pet owners are typically unaware of their planning options to prepare or the possibility that their pets might outlive them.
