Humane Society Sets Up Fund to Aid Recession’s Animal Victims

April 8, 2009

The Humane Society of the United States has established a “foreclosure pets fund” as the recession forces owners faced with losing their homes to give up their pets, reports National Public Radio.

Since setting up the fund last year, the society has doled out more than $100,000 to animal shelters and rescue clinics for pet-food banks, temporary boarding, and aid to owners unable to pay for emergency medical care.
