Appendix 5.A Overview of Safety Net Program Types
| Category | Program type | Benefits/Impact * | Resources needed | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| To the pet | To the owner | To the community | To the organization | |||
| Basic needs | Food banks | Address basic nutritional needs | Reduce food insecurity | Collaborative programs offer a One Health approach to meeting basic needs | Opportunity for collaboration with key community stakeholders | Minimal investment in time and resources, particularly if donated food is used |
| Pet‐friendly housing support | Addresses basic sheltering needs | Reduces housing insecurity | Collaborative programs create partnership with attorneys, human social services, and housing organizations | Opportunity for collaboration with key community stakeholders | Minimal resources to develop and maintain a database; more resources needed for advocacy | |
| Rehoming advice and resources | Avoid sheltering | Ideally ease the rehoming process and enhance communication with the new owner | Facilitate community member connections to address the need for rehoming | Place the onus for rehoming on the pet owner when feasible | Minimal | |
| Lost‐and‐found programs | Avoid the negative sequelae of roaming at‐large | Reduce/prevent the emotional impact of losing a pet | Reduce the nuisance or dangerous behaviors related to stray pets | Often required for municipal organizations; touchpoint with the community to provide access to other services | Moderate to significant use of time but often within normal scope of responsibilities | |
| Temporary sheltering | Prevents permanent rehoming | Maintains the human‐animal bond at a time of critical need | Removes a barrier for those in crisis to seek help for themselves | Opportunity for collaboration through programs that are often very well received by the organization’s supporters | Moderate investment in time and resources to manage program and provide care | |
| Humane education | Potential for improved welfare | Increases knowledge regarding pet care and may improve children’s emotional well‐being | May enhance empathy and correlate with other positive behaviors in children | Strengthens ties to the community; provides potential for revenue through classes, parties, and camps | Variable based on the scope of the program | |
| Veterinary care | Spay‐neuter services | Health benefits of sterilization | Avoidance of unwanted litters and problematic pet behaviors associated with a sexually intact status | Reduced pet overpopulation and reduced free‐roaming pets | Potential for outreach and collaboration with the local veterinary community | Significant financial and staffing resources typically necessary |
| Access to basic veterinary care | Health benefits of preventive health care and other primary veterinary care | Enhances the human‐animal bond by preventing unmanaged medical concerns | Can be partnered with human health initiatives for a One Health community approach | Potential for strategic partnerships with human health agencies and/or private practitioners | Varies based on model but typically requires a moderate to significant resource investment as for spay‐neuter services | |
| Return‐to‐field programs | Health benefits of sterilization and vaccination | If a caretaker is present, help to reduce colony size and improve colony health | Reduce the free‐roaming cat population | Reduce euthanasia of healthy cats and foster collaboration with the community in trapping and caring for these cats | Require the resources to manage the program and provide sterilization services (but may be outweighed by reduced resources for sheltering and euthanasia) | |
| Behavioral care | Behavior resources | Improved behavioral health | Increased knowledge regarding pet care | May reduce nuisance or dangerous pet behaviors | Enhance the knowledge base of clientele | Minimal resources to collate information and review the information with clients |
| Training classes | Improved behavioral health | Increased training knowledge, an opportunity for socialization of the pet, and an opportunity for a relationship with a trainer and other pet owners | May reduce nuisance or dangerous pet behaviors | Strengthen organizational ties with adopters and potential for collaboration with local training services | Moderate to significant resource investment, particularly if combined with outreach | |
| Behavior hotlines | Improved behavioral health | Increased individualized knowledge regarding pet care | May reduce nuisance or dangerous pet behaviors | Strengthen organizational ties with adopters and the community | Minimal to modest resource investment dependent on program structure and expert support | |
| Behavior consultations | Improved behavioral health | Increased individualized knowledge and support in addressing pet behavior concerns | May reduce nuisance or dangerous pet behaviors | Strengthen organizational ties with adopters and potential for collaboration with local trainers | Significant resource investment dependent on program structure and scope |
*The desired impact of all safety net programs is to prevent unnecessary companion animal relinquishment. Only benefits more specific to the individual programs are described.
