I would ask family members if they could help, even for a short time. If nobody can step up for the pet, I would ask an animal rescue or a no-kill-shelter. The Humane Society will also take your pet. Also, check the resources, some of them will help you out if possible. They will donate food and whatnot so that you don't have to give up your animal.
Human society
