Urgent or after-hours veterinary care

Cozy Critter Rescue is not a veterinary clinic and can’t provide emergency treatment or medical advice.

If your animal needs urgent care, contact your own veterinarian or a local emergency animal hospital directly.

Can’t keep your pet?

Our Community Rehome Program lets your pet stay at home with you while we help find their next family — avoiding a stressful shelter stay.

Know a business we should know?

We’re always glad to hear about local vets, trainers, groomers and transporters who do right by animals — especially those who work with small pets and exotics.
