Are you deploying and need help with your pets? Are you a Veteran and need surgery or have healthcare needs you are putting off because you have pets?
In this episode, Tyler talks with Betsy M. Kilkenny, Executive Director for PACT stands for People + Animals = Companions Together, about their mission to provide programs that benefit companion animals and their owners.
PACT is a network of passionate people who know the power of the human-animal bond and work hard to protect it. PACT is a constantly growing community of animal lovers that support each other and recognize the connection between a person and their pet goes beyond life’s temporary, unpredictable crises. They are constantly expanding this network as more people become aware of our work and join them in protecting the human-animal bond by fostering companion animals or providing other support to people and pets in need. PACT works towards a world where no beloved companion animals are unwillingly surrendered to shelters because of a temporary military or medical crisis.

If you are a Veteran and need to have your own surgery and long term recovery, let PACT. help you with your pet's care while you take care of your own personal healthcare necessities.
If you have a point of contact near you that helps Veterans please share PACT's information.
