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.

Beware of antifreeze - INVISIBLE DANGER!

January 2025

Even the smallest amounts can cause severe kidney damage in cats,
often with a fatal outcome.

Symptoms of poisoning:
- Lethargy & loss of appetite
- Hyperventilation & dehydration
- Dilated pupils & impaired balance

Cats (and dogs) find the sweet taste of the substance particularly tempting. Spilled antifreeze is not only absorbed directly: Animals can also ingest the substance later by licking it off their paws or fur; even the smallest amounts are enough to cause life-threatening damage.

Danger in winter:
Did you know? When fountains flow even in icy temperatures, this is often only due to the use of antifreeze.
An invisible but deadly danger for animals.
Protect your animals:
- Never use antifreeze in water that is accessible to animals.
- Choose alternatives without ethylene glycol.
- Thoroughly wipe up spilled antifreeze immediately!
- Store antifreeze safely and out of the reach of children and animals.
   and animals.

Emergency? See a vet immediately! Quick action can save lives.
