Got Pets? Low Cost Clinics, Mobile Clinics & Emergency Clinic Information

We all have busy lives, and preventative care for your pet is essential.  While we can't keep our animals from getting hurt or sick, we can get them vaccinations, flea and worm prevention. Here are a few organizations in Central Illinois that you may not be aware of.


Just Animals

Just Animals runs a low cost clinic. They travel all over Central Illinois.  While appointments are encouraged; they do accept walk-ins, but you may have to wait a bit while those with appointments are seen first.

  • Knowing that animal care is close to people's hearts but not in the budget, Just Animals is bringing affordable basic care to the surrounding communities. 
  • The clinics offer several basic vaccines including rabies vaccines, heartworm tests and preventative for dogs, flea and tick preventative, FIV/FELV tests for cats, microchipping, deworming, and basic exams. 
  • Every clinic helps 80-100 animals and their wonderful caretakers. In this economy we need to help all the dogs and cats we can! We are so happy to be part of the solution to the high costs pet parents encounter.
  • You can find them at Tractor Supply, Big R and other locations all around Central Illinois. Check the schedule on their website for a location near you.

Having Trouble Affording Veterinary Care?

It could happen to anyone with a pet: You've always managed to give your pet the medical care she deserves, but because of unexpected circumstances, you're faced with vet expenses that are far beyond your ability to afford them.

No owner wants a pet to suffer because medical care is out of reach. Financial aid is out there, and there are steps you can take to cover an emergency vet bill.

Please remember that, depending on the severity of your pet's illness or injury, you may still lose your pet even after great expense. Discuss the prognosis and treatment options with your veterinarian, including whether surgery or treatment would just cause your companion discomfort without preserving a life of good quality.

Check out the LINK above to find out way you can get your pet the care they need.
