TREAT ME KIND – ANIMAL PROTECTION CHARITY
No one should have to choose between feeding themselves or their pet
At Treat Me Kind, we support people and their pets through times of hardship, because we know that our beloved pets are family. When life becomes overwhelming, that bond matters more than ever.
How You Can HelpWho we are
Treat Me Kind is a community-led charity working alongside local foodbanks and partners to support vulnerable people across our communities. We provide emergency pet food and help with essential veterinary care where possible, so that no one has to face the heartbreak of giving up a beloved companion.
Why it matters
For many people, a pet is their only constant, offering comfort, routine, and unconditional love. But as the cost of living rises, more families are struggling to afford even the basics.
Too often, people are forced into impossible decisions:
Do I feed myself, or my pet?
Do I pay my bills, or take my animal to the vet?
We exist to make sure no one has to make that choice.

Help keep pets in loving homes where they belong

Our impact
Through our partnerships, we’re reaching people who need support the most, offering not just practical help, but reassurance, dignity, and hope.
Our work helps prevent unnecessary pet relinquishment, supports community wellbeing, and strengthens the vital bond between people and their animals. By working alongside local organisations, we ensure support reaches those who need it quickly, effectively, and with compassion.
The result is stronger communities, healthier animals, and people who feel supported rather than alone.
Because when you help a pet, you help a person too.
