Why your support matters

Thanks to supporters like you, BSAVA PetSavers has invested over £2.7 million into more than 300 research projects since 1974.

This funding has helped improve the treatment and understanding of many conditions affecting companion animals, including:

  • Cancer
  • Heart disease
  • Neurological disorders
  • Bone and joint disease
  • Immune conditions
  • Gastrointestinal and skin diseases

However, many conditions still aren’t fully understood.

By supporting PetSavers, you’ll help fund vital research to improve diagnosis, treatment, and care, helping pets live longer, healthier, and happier lives.
