You may be worried that pets might be abused, neglected or tortured if you leave and can't take them with you.

Emergency housing won’t be able to accommodate pets and it may take some time to find longer term housing where you can live with your pets.

Refuge4Pets is a charity that operates across Devon and Cornwall offering a fostering service to animals in your care if you need to move as a result of domestic abuse or violence but are unable to take them with you initially.  

Dogs Trust might be able to offer a foster home for established pets via the Freedom Project (although they currently don't have placements in the South West).
