Forever Young
Senior wellness care for shelter animals age 7 and older.
Age is never the reason.
In loving memory of Matthew Young, Healthcare for Homeless Animals created Forever Young, our Senior Wellness Exam program for shelter animals age 7 and older.
Forever Young changes the narrative for older shelter animals. It protects their health, helps adopters see them clearly, and gives them a real chance at a loving home.
From overlooked
to adopted.
Senior pets are often overlooked. Through Forever Young, every shelter animal age 7 and older gets a head-to-tail exam and diagnostics from a private veterinarian, and Healthcare for Homeless Animals funds the medical care they need from there.

Their care is funded
Whatever the exam finds, Healthcare for Homeless Animals funds the medical care that follows, from dental cleanings to more complex treatments like surgery.
-
Adopters know their health
Potential adopters get a clear understanding of a senior animal’s health, which encourages more adoptions.
Seven years young and counting.
Gray muzzles, big hearts, and plenty of love left to give.
A leader in senior adoptions.
Forever Young has made Agoura Animal Care Center a leader in senior pet adoptions in LA County. When adopters understand a senior animal’s health, more seniors go home, and the center now has one of the highest senior adoption rates in LA County.
