Housing support before an animal loses its home
Calgary Humane Society’s pet-inclusive housing initiative with the City of Calgary gives landlords and tenants practical tools to make living with animals work. Resources include pet profiles, agreements, screening questions and inspection templates. Its Pets and Renters programme also offers free behaviour consultations, addressing difficulties that can otherwise put an animal’s home at risk.
Food and preventive care for families under pressure
The donation-based Food Bank supplies food and essential items after an application is reviewed. Wellness clinics provide vaccination and spay-neuter opportunities for low-income owners through published application rounds. These services aim to support animals within their existing families, rather than allowing a manageable shortage or preventive-care cost to become a reason for surrender.
Two routes for temporary care during a crisis
Emergency Boarding supports people who temporarily cannot care for an animal after events such as a disaster or sudden hospitalisation, when other support is unavailable. Pet Safekeeping offers confidential boarding when violence or abuse puts a family at risk. Both programmes require referral from a recognised agency or professional; they are not ordinary holiday-boarding services.
Defined veterinary help for older owners
The Seniors Program assists vulnerable or isolated owners aged 65 and over, including access to veterinary care and food-bank support. Veterinary assistance focuses on single treatments. Its stated scope excludes lifelong diagnoses, ongoing treatment and long-term medication, a useful distinction when considering whether a particular care need fits the programme.
Rosco’s Keep Them Home is assessed internally
Rosco’s Keep Them Home considers eligible animals surrendered because of an unexpected medical emergency, with the possibility of treatment and return to their family. Cases must meet the programme’s conditions, including a history of regular veterinary care. The charity identifies and approves participants; this programme does not accept direct applications.
Follow the appropriate request or referral
Use the official community-services guide for applications and referral contacts, or the housing resource hub for landlord and tenant tools. AnimalProtech’s map helps locate the organisation. The community team can clarify which form or professional referral matches the household’s circumstances.
