The Cinnamon Trust works in partnership with older and terminally ill pet owners, acknowledging and valuing the treasured and important relationship between owner and pet, providing practical hands on assistance through a network of over 20,000 registered volunteers, when any aspect of day-to-day care poses a problem for the owner, and giving owners the peace of mind they need in order to benefit from the relationship, by the provision of life long care for pets who outlive them.
This care is given in two purpose-built home-from-home sanctuaries and in foster homes. The Trust oversees all animals in long term foster homes and pays all veterinary bills.
Fosterers provide food but where particular diets are necessary and/or a family of animals has been fostered the trust also pays for food. This is in accordance with the expectations of deceased owners.
The Trust has an enviable reputation for providing a first class service across all areas of our work, from tasking volunteers to help owners and pets at home, to ensuring the permanent residents who reside at our two sanctuaries or in foster homes receive the highest standards of care.
