Hi. I'm looking to connect with vets and clinics that want to partner with us to help save dogs and cats at risk of being surrendered or euthanized due to inability to afford treatment. We're launching a program called TotoCares that allocates grants for vets to pull down to help off-set or cover their cost in benevolence cases. Please message me for more info.

What a wonderful cause. I wish more practices offered financial assistance.

Some programs that already exist in the U.S. are listed here:

Is this program in existence right now?

This poster hasn't been on SDN since this post, so unlikely to respond. But I couldn't find this group with a quick Google search. So unlikely to have taken off.

From my Googling also, it appears to have been affiliated with Toto Pet Insurance. But that company + the TotoCares program seems to now be defunct, since at least 2023. And were never particularly large to begin with, having been reviewed (and followed on social media) by only a very small handful of people. Grain of salt of course as this is the internet but interestingly, as of 9 months ago, someone posted a review saying the company changed their phone line and removed website contacts but were still charging them monthly for insurance, so I'm not sure what exactly is going on.

Given the size of the U.S. pet population, market penetration for pet insurance in the U.S. is still comparatively low. This is particularly true when compared to some Western European countries, like the U.K. and Sweden, and indicates the significant potential for market gains in the U.S.
