OWNER RELEASE

Thomas Animal Hospital is located in Pinellas County Hurricane Evacuation Zone A. In the event of any inclement weather warning or hurricane warning, all personnel must evacuate the premises. We have NO means to transfer or provide alternate shelter for the pets boarding at our facility, so owners will be responsible for picking up their pets IMMEDIATELY if a hurricane warning is issued for Pinellas County. 

I understand you can not guarantee the health of the pet I understand and will not hold the clinic responsible for conditions that are unavoidable in boarding kennels, such as but not limited to weight loss, hair loss, upper respiratory infections, bronchitis, diarrhea, and fleas. I understand all pets admitted to the clinic must be protected against communicable contagious diseases and must be free of internal and external parasites or will be treated on entry or discovery at the owner / agent’s expense.

I understand that in the event of pet illness, the staff will immediately attempt to contact me or my agent to discuss the problem and treatment options, but may not be able to contact me immediately and is therefore authorized to initiate appropriate treatment until my agent or I can be reached.

Should an EMERGENCY arise, I authorize the medical staff to sedate the pet and/or perform such emergency procedures as may be necessary for the health of the pet until I can be notified. I agree to pay, in full, all charges for necessary services rendered for and to the pet.

I understand that the clinic is not responsible for loss or damage to personal items left with the pet including but not limited to leashes, collars, toys, and bedding.

The clinic is to use all reasonable precaution against injury, escape, or death of a pet. The clinic and staff will not be held liable for any problems that develop provided reasonable care and precautions are followed. I understand that any problem that develops with a pet will be treated as noted above and I assume full responsibility for the treatment expense incurred.

I will call if my “pick-up date” changes so you can plan accordingly. If I neglect to pick up the pet within 5 days of the date scheduled for discharge, and do not notify you within that time period, you may assume that pet is abandoned and are hereby authorized to surrender ownership of the pet as you deem best and/or necessary.
