Emergency boarding
Somewhere for an animal to stay at short notice — because someone has been admitted to hospital, because a home has become unsafe or unliveable, or because a rescue has run out of room tonight.
What has happened?
TIMOMAX has not sent this anywhere.
TIMOMAX does not currently dispatch or monitor emergency requests. Nothing you have entered has been sent to a shelter, rescue, boarding facility or veterinary practice, and nobody has been notified. Please contact help directly using the routes below.
The fastest correct route for an animal that is hurt or ill. If yours is closed, its answerphone usually names the emergency practice that covers it out of hours.

Open in TIMOMAXIf a person is in danger, or an animal is in danger in a way that puts people at risk.
TIMOMAX remains useful for finding who is near you and what they have actually said about their availability. It cannot pass your request to them, and it will not pretend otherwise.
Who this reaches
Both networks at once. Boarding facilities that have said they take emergency placements, and the rescues and registered foster homes nearby — because on any given night either might be the one with room, and an animal does not care which.
TIMOMAX cannot name a facility near you here, because it has no boarding record for your area yet. That is a gap in TIMOMAX’s data rather than a report that nowhere nearby would take your animal tonight. If you cannot wait for a person to read this request, your own vet, the nearest emergency clinic and your local animal control or shelter are the fastest ways to find somewhere — and TIMOMAX Emergency has the numbers that do not depend on TIMOMAX having a directory.
Emergency boarding is ordered by what a facility can actually take and how close it is — never by what it pays TIMOMAX. Commercial standing is not readable from this path at all, and facilities that offer free or discounted emergency places are shown first regardless of tier.
