SUST-OAH Moreni

Shelter and veterinary care for stray animals in Moreni, Romania

The SUST orphan animal hospital (OAH) Moreni 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.

Every day many dogs and cats in Romania 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 Moreni 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.

A severe case of babesiosis....

May 2023

Small but mighty, in both senses!
Sasha, the little Chihuahua lady, was bitten by a small infected tick. However, this led to a very severe case of babesiosis in her.
Sasha was so weak when she was brought to SUST-OAH Moreni that she could barely stand or walk. Her chances of survival were slim, and the owner would never have been able to afford the cost of treatment at the regular veterinarian.
If it were not for the will of our SUST team in Moreni:
To keep all tiny and temperamental Chihuahuas as the precious, perfect beings they are.
Who knows how excruciating Sasha's final ordeal would have been....?
After a week of intensive care, a blood transfusion, daily infusions, lots of cuddles and delicious food, Sasha was able to fall back into her owner's arms. She was also dewormed properly and received a treatment against ticks and fleas as well.
All of this would not have been possible without your continued support. We and Sasha are grateful to be able to share in these happy stories and help those who need our help the most - Thank you!
