Nearby SOS requests
Receive SOS alerts only from inside the distance you choose, rather than an unbounded public feed.
Be the backup a feeder is hoping for.
Feeders sometimes face harassment or another emergency while caring for animals. Choose how far you can help, turn on nearby SOS alerts and join the response when someone needs community support.
Useful context
See the location, landmark, directions, note or voice message and callback number shared with the helpers selected for that SOS.
Response progress
Tap “I can help”, share an ETA, then mark when you are on the way and when you have arrived.
Community safety
Use shared details only for the response. If anyone is in immediate danger, contact 112 or local authorities.
