How to honor a patient

Thank you for choosing to remember a beloved patient. This program lets you make a memorial contribution to the Veterinary Care Fund in a pet’s name and send a heartfelt note to the family — a meaningful way to acknowledge their loss while supporting other pets in need.

Suggested contribution: $25 per memorial

How It Works

When you submit the form below, we’ll take care of three things on your behalf:

1. A draft email for you to send. We’ll prepare a message you can review, personalize, and send directly to the pet’s family.
2. A free memorial wall code for the family. The owner can use it to post a tribute on our Legacy Wall at no cost.
3. An optional sympathy card by mail. If you’d like, we’ll mail a card to the family on your behalf, with your hospital as the return address.

Privacy & Confidentiality

We’ve designed this program to protect everyone involved — you, your client, and their pet’s memory.

• Nothing is public without consent. No information appears on the Legacy Wall until the pet owner approves it.
• Mailing details are never kept. If you ask us to send a card, the name and address are used solely to mail it and then deleted from our records. We act as your agent in handling this confidential information.
• Easy, secure access for owners. Families receive a password-less link to return to the site whenever they wish.
• Respectful follow-up. If an owner chooses to contribute or opt in for updates, they’ll hear from us no more than twice a year.

The Impact of Your Gift

Your contribution, made in memory of this pet, directly supports families and animals in need. Because of your generosity, other pets will receive care when it matters most.

Your gesture also gives the family an opportunity — never an obligation — to support their regional Veterinary Care Fund. We always recognize that they are your client and communicate with care and ethical sensitivity.
