Pet Hotline Information

I’m sure all of you have seen at least one pet hotline information number list - many of us have probably seen many more. You can find them every where - in the newspapers, on the internet, on the television, and on the radio to name only a few places.

Oftentimes these pet hotline information calls are free, but occasionally a small fee may be charged, depending on the type service involved, so be sure to check before you make the call.

Beware 900 numbers in particular as these almost always have a charge (sometimes hidden) and may add up very quickly to be quite a hefty sum over the course of your call(s).

Below you will find a listing of several pet hotline information numbers which you may, or may not, find helpful. As with all other emergency numbers, you may want to put these in a safe place should you ever need them. Phone numbers change from time to time so you may want to check and update your list from time to time - just in case.

We hope you never have the need to use any of these pet hotline information numbers, but if you do, here they are for your convenience and ease of use.
