🚨 Before You Post: Please Take Action First

We understand that seeing a dog, puppy, cat, or kitten in distress can be upsetting, and sharing their situation with the community can sometimes help bring attention to an animal in need.

However, we want to remind everyone of something very important:

📸 Posting a photo or video is not the same as taking action.

If you are physically near the animal or are in a position to help, please make a reasonable effort to take action before or immediately after making your post.

Depending on the situation, this may include:

• 🐾 Checking if the animal is still alive and responsive
• 🏥 Bringing the animal to a veterinarian or contacting one
• 🆘 Contacting a nearby rescue organization or animal welfare group
• 🏠 Securing the animal from immediate danger, if it is safe to do so
• 📍 Asking someone nearby who is capable of assisting
• 📞 Contacting the appropriate local authorities or emergency services when necessary
• 🤝 Asking the community for specific assistance that can actually help the animal

If an animal is seriously injured, trapped, being abused, extremely weak, or otherwise in immediate danger, please don't wait for Reddit users to respond to your post.

🚨 The animal needs action—not just attention.

A photo or video can help communicate the situation, but upvotes, comments, and online attention cannot provide medical treatment, food, shelter, or immediate physical assistance.

📍 If You're the Person Who Found the Animal

If you are close enough to the animal to reasonably assist, we strongly encourage you to do something to help before posting, whenever it is safe and practical to do so.

You don't necessarily need to personally rescue the animal. Sometimes, calling a vet, contacting a rescuer, finding someone nearby who can assist, or getting the animal out of immediate danger is already an important first step.

We understand that not everyone has the resources, transportation, experience, or ability to personally handle an animal in distress. Please don't put yourself in danger.

But if you are able to take reasonable action, please do so.

📸 What About Sharing for Awareness?

There may be legitimate reasons to share a photo or video—for example, when:

• The animal has already been rescued or secured;
• Assistance is already being coordinated;
• You're looking for a specific person or organization to help;
• The situation occurred previously and you're sharing it for educational purposes;
• You witnessed something and need help determining the appropriate next step.

In these cases, please provide context about what has already been done and what assistance is still needed.

🚫 Posts Made “Just Because”

If a member is physically near or directly involved with an animal in distress but simply posts a photo or video without taking reasonable action or providing a legitimate purpose for sharing it, the moderation team may remove the post.

This is especially important when the animal appears to require immediate intervention.

We don't want CatsPH to become a place where animals in distress are simply photographed and posted while everyone waits for someone else to act.

❤️ Please don't just document the suffering. Help where you reasonably can.

We appreciate everyone who takes the time to care, report, rescue, assist, or connect an animal with someone who can help.

Your post can bring attention to an animal in need—but your actions are what can actually make a difference. 🐱🐶🐾

🐶 Help Us Find Vet Clinics Near You! 🏥💙

We’ve been receiving a lot of inquiries from members asking about veterinary clinics near their area, particularly clinics that may offer more affordable rates, discounted services, or staggered/installment payment options.

We understand why this is important. Veterinary expenses can become difficult to manage, especially for pet owners, rescuers, and those caring for dogs and puppies in need. 🐾

Because of this, DogsPH is working on building a list of veterinary clinics across the Philippines that we can reach out to and explore possible options for our community.

📍 We Need Your Help!

Please comment your CITY/MUNICIPALITY and PROVINCE below.

For example:

>

This will help us understand where our members are located so we can prioritize clinics that are reasonably accessible to the communities we serve.

🏥 What We'll Be Asking Clinics About

Depending on what each clinic offers, we may inquire about:

• 💰 Discounted consultation or treatment rates
• 🐶 Affordable services for dogs and puppies
• 💉 Vaccination and deworming rates
• ✂️ Spay/neuter pricing
• 🩺 Diagnostic and treatment costs
• 🚑 Emergency care options
• 💳 Staggered or installment payment arrangements
• 🤝 Possible community or rescue rates
• Other programs that may make veterinary care more accessible

Please note: We cannot guarantee that a clinic will provide discounts, special rates, or payment arrangements. Our goal is to open the conversation and explore what options may be available.

🐾 Know a Good Vet Clinic?

If you already know a reputable veterinary clinic in your area, please mention the clinic’s name in the comments as well.

If possible, share clinics that you have personally had a good experience with and that are known to provide proper and compassionate veterinary care.

💙 Why Are We Doing This?

DogsPH has been receiving more inquiries from people who genuinely want to get veterinary care for their dogs and puppies but are struggling to find accessible and affordable options nearby.

We may not be able to financially assist every case, but we can hopefully help create more pathways to veterinary care.

If we can establish relationships with clinics willing to work with pet owners and rescuers, we may be able to help people find appropriate care without having to travel extremely far or immediately face an overwhelming veterinary bill.

Let's make veterinary care more accessible—one clinic at a time. 🐶🏥💙

📍 Comment your CITY/MUNICIPALITY + PROVINCE below!

And if you know a clinic we should reach out to, tell us about them! 🐾

Thank you for helping us build a resource that could benefit pet owners, rescuers, dogs, and puppies who need care. ❤️🐶

Effective September 1, 2026

PetsPH understands that veterinary care and other urgent needs can become financially overwhelming, especially when a pet needs immediate treatment. We want to help where we can while making sure our community remains fair, transparent, and safe for everyone.

As PetsPH is still a small and growing community, our resources and moderation capacity are limited. To give more pet owners and rescuers a fair opportunity to receive community support, we will be implementing the following guidelines.

📌 Donation Request Limit

PetsPH can accommodate only ONE (1) approved donation request per week.

This limit allows us to:

• Give other pet owners and rescuers a fair opportunity to request assistance.
• Prevent the community from being overwhelmed by multiple fundraising campaigns.
• Allow moderators enough time to properly review and verify each request.
• Maintain transparency and accountability for every approved campaign.

Submitting a request does not guarantee approval. Requests will be reviewed based on the circumstances, urgency, completeness of documentation, and availability of the weekly slot.

🔄 Existing Fundraisers on Other Subreddits

If you already have an active donation or fundraising campaign on another subreddit, your request on PetsPH will likely not be approved.

This is to prevent redundant fundraising campaigns for the same case and to ensure that the limited opportunities available in PetsPH can be given to other pet owners or rescuers who have not yet received community fundraising support.

Having an existing fundraiser elsewhere does not automatically mean that your situation is invalid or unworthy of help. However, because PetsPH can accommodate only one request per week, we need to prioritize new cases and individuals who have not already established an active fundraising campaign elsewhere.

🩺 Verification & Approval

All donation and fundraising requests are subject to moderator review and verification.

Depending on the circumstances, moderators may request:

• Veterinary records or medical documents
• Official estimates or invoices from the veterinary clinic
• Receipts for completed procedures or treatment
• Photos or videos of the pet
• Proof of identity or ownership/rescue involvement
• Additional information needed to verify the case

Providing complete documentation does not guarantee approval.

PetsPH reserves the right to decline requests when the information provided is insufficient, inconsistent, unverifiable, or does not meet the community's requirements.

🚨 Urgent & Emergency Cases

Urgent veterinary cases may receive priority when appropriate, particularly when immediate treatment is necessary to prevent serious harm or loss of life.

However, urgency does not automatically guarantee approval. Verification and available capacity will still be considered.

💙 Fairness to the Community

We understand that every pet and every situation is important. Unfortunately, PetsPH currently has limited capacity to support fundraising campaigns.

The one-request-per-week limit is not intended to discourage people from asking for help. It is intended to make the limited fundraising opportunities available to as many pet owners and rescuers as reasonably possible.

We ask everyone to be patient and respectful with the moderation team and with other members waiting for an opportunity to receive assistance.

⚠️ Important Reminder

PetsPH is a community-run subreddit and cannot guarantee financial assistance for every case.

Donation requests should not be treated as a guaranteed source of veterinary funding. Pet owners and rescuers should explore other available resources whenever possible.

Any attempt to misrepresent a case, submit duplicate requests, manipulate the community, or circumvent these guidelines may result in the request being declined and may lead to further moderation action.

🐾 Our Goal

Our goal is simple: to help where we can, while making sure that the opportunity to receive community support is shared fairly.

As PetsPH continues to grow, these guidelines may be reviewed and adjusted according to the community's capacity and needs.

Thank you for understanding, cooperating, and helping us make PetsPH a safe, compassionate, and responsible community for pets and the people who care for them. 🐶🐱💙
