SUST-OAH Galati

Shelter and veterinary care for stray animals in Galati, Romania

The SUST orphan animal hospital (OAH) Galati gives stray animals in need a second chance: Sick and injured strays are treated here free of charge and professionally, operated and nursed back to health. In addition to emergency cases, castrations are also carried out on a daily basis: Thus, the overpopulation of street animals in this region is limited in an animal-friendly and sustainable way.

An estimated 10,000 - 12,000 dogs and countless cats live on the streets in the huge Romanian industrial city of Galati. Every day many of them are abandoned, injured, have accidents and/or fall ill - most of them die miserably without help. Nobody cares about these animals. (Passers-by usually do not take such animals in distress to the vet for fear of the high costs) The remaining animals multiply uncontrollably and provide for numerous, unfortunately unwanted offspring.

In the orphan animal hospitals of the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation, street animals find refuge and help! Accidentally injured and sick animals receive veterinary care here, and spay and neutering for dogs and cats are also carried out on an ongoing basis. The Susy Utzinger Foundation organizes and finances the Orphan Animal Hospital in Galati and covers the veterinary costs, finances medicines, operations, therapies and care.
In addition to the free spay programm and treatments of street animals, SUST is also intensively committed to a sustainable solution of the animal welfare problems on site on other levels: Education and training of professionals, optimization of animal shelters, information and education of the population and promotion of the placement of homeless animals directly in the country.

Please allow more cat castrations in Switzerland

While we like to point our finger abroad, we often forget that there is also a lot of animal suffering in Switzerland. On abandoned factory premises, in allotment gardens and on remote farms, animal tragedies often take place - very often in secret. At these places, countless kittens are born every day, for which nobody really feels responsible and which nobody wants to have. As a rule, they become wild, just like their parents. To find a good home for feral cats is almost impossible, because most people want a cat to cuddle, not one that hides under the sofa for days with its eyes torn wide open with fear. In animal shelters they therefore become permanent guests who are difficult to place and suffer from confinement. If they live in freedom, they are defenselessly at the mercy of diseases, territory fights and killing actions. Many of them are therefore condemned to an early, painful death.

How much suffering would they have been spared if they had not been born in the first place?

It has been proven that castration/neutering campaigns are the only sustainable method to contain the overpopulation of stray animals in a long-term and animal-friendly manner.

Cats that are captured and castrated/neutered and released in their territory claim a territory in their habitat and thus prevent other cats from migrating. A "rehabilitated" population of castrated cats no longer grows and there is no "supply" of feral cats. Thus, the number of unwanted animals is minimized in the course of time in a natural way.

Many Swiss veterinarians support the SUST approach and castrate these feral populations at reduced prices. Last year alone, the SUST was able to finance 520 cat castrations/neuterings in Switzerland in cooperation with 41 renowned veterinarians, thus making a major contribution to the fight against cat misery in Switzerland.

In addition, SUST donates and lends numerous cat traps, gives away transport baskets, bowls and cloths, donates food for feral colonies, gives away SUST guidelines "Cat castration campaigns = active animal welfare" free of charge and conducts educational campaigns on this subject.

The demand for financial support for cat castration campaigns is growing steadily, but the awareness of the immense need for such measures and the willingness to donate for them is negligible.

Therefore we urgently need your help so that we can make at least as many (or even more) castrations possible this year. Please participate in our crowdfunding for cat castrations in Switzerland. Every franc counts!

Incoming donations will flow into this year's budget for cat castrations in Switzerland without deduction and will enable us to continue to have additional castrations.
