Over 1,173,000 newly adopted pets have now gone home with the protection of the ShelterCare Gift Program and, with over $5.3 million paid out in claims made within the first 30-days following adoption, it is clear that this program plays a significant role in the long term placement of pets by:-
- Encouraging adoption;
- Reducing post-adoption calls and complaints regarding unhealthy animals;
- Reducing the number of adopted pets returned for health reasons;
- Reducing costs for animal welfare organizations related to post adoption treatment of accidents and illnesses.
BUT the ShelterCare Gift is just for 30-days following adoption –
these pets need to be taken care of for LIFE!

When thinking about the long-term health of the animals that are adopted out of your facility, we encourage adoption counselors/volunteers to play an active role in educating new adopters about the value of long-term insurance for newly adopted animals. Long-term health insurance coverage for pets:-
- Can virtually eliminate the number of pets which are returned to shelters after becoming sick or injured.
- Eliminates financial euthanasia of animals.
- Ensures that animals are provided with the healthcare that they need when they need it.
- Allows pet owners to choose the best medical option rather than the affordable medical option for their pets.
Help us to continue to save pets lives!
- Talk to your adopters about long term health insurance for their pets.
- Provide your adopters with the ShelterCare marketing materials at the point of adoption.
- Out of materials? Call us at 1-866-375-7387 or order online today.
Together we can make a difference!
