Help animals

The activities of SUST

All over the world, countless animals in overcrowded shelters live sadly or struggle for their survival in wild colonies. Day after day, even today, animals that have become inconvenient are still abandoned, deported or mistakenly kept for lack of better knowledge. The Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation contributes with effective means to the fact that animal suffering can be reduced or even prevented sustainably.

This animal welfare work is based on four pillars:

1. Competence Centre Animal Shelter: Animal shelters become high-quality transition stations for homeless animals, where animals are kept and promoted in a way that is appropriate for their species and finally transferred to good new places.

2. Neutering campaigns: Braking the animal misery

3. Education and training of specialists: Specialists are given the opportunity to optimise their knowledge and improve animal welfare.

4. Education of the population: love of animals with heart and mind

These four elements form the important basis for sustainable animal welfare projects.

Those animals that are not yet able to benefit from the effects of this reconstruction work and have been born into a world where they are not wanted need the emergency aid of SUST.

Rabies risk countries

September 2024

Good to know:
Because mammals can contract rabies, special regulations apply when traveling with pets. The aim is to prevent the introduction of the disease, which is fatal for animals and humans alike.
Death from rabies is incredibly painful for all living creatures and usually occurs within four to ten days as a result of paralysis of the respiratory center.
Switzerland has been officially rabies-free since 1999 - and it should stay that way.
The regulations are therefore regularly adapted and rigorously enforced.
For Russia and Belarus, the regulations for rabies risk countries will apply from September 16, 2024.
