SUST-Orphan Animal Hospital Beirut

The SUST-Orphan Animal Hospital Beirut (Lebanon) gives street animals in need a second chance: sick and injured strays are treated, operated on and rehomed here free of charge and professionally. In addition to emergency cases, castrations are also carried out: In this way, the overpopulation of street animals in this region is limited in an animal-friendly and sustainable way.

Countless dogs and cats live on the streets in and around Beirut. Every day, many of them are abandoned, get injured, have accidents and/or fall ill - most of them die miserably without help (passers-by usually do not take such animals in distress to the vet for fear of the high costs). The remaining animals reproduce uncontrollably and provide numerous, unfortunately unwanted offspring.

In the Lebanese capital, many of them are rescued and receive urgently needed veterinary care at the Animal Orphans Hospital of the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation: street dogs and cats (as well as other animal species) find refuge and veterinary care here. In addition, neutering of dogs and cats is carried out here on an ongoing basis. The Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation organises and finances the Orphan Animal Hospital in Beirut and covers the veterinary costs, finances medication, therapies and care.

Animals in Lebanon need your help!

October 2024

Those who fear for their own lives often have no space left to care for animals as well. The images and stories deeply move us, but we are grateful to be able to help many of these animals. Assistance is urgently needed now!

Join us in helping! We have set up a crowdfunding campaign to ensure food for the animals affected by the conflicts, who now need shelter and a safe home at the facility where our Orphan Animal Hospital (OAH) in Beirut is located.

After being treated and cared for at the OAH thanks to your support, they are allowed to stay safely in the shelter. Many were left behind when their humans fled the attacks, or they were rescued from southern Lebanon—either from evacuated shelters, directly from the streets, or from abandoned properties where they were often still chained. Our team is tirelessly committed to protecting these animals.

With their stories, we aim to highlight the urgent assistance needed for both people and animals right now:

  • Iona
  • Brawler
  • Orson
  • Paolo
  • Vick
  • Stryder
  • Kenobi
  • And 15 other rescued animals

Every bit of support helps to make these animals' lives a little better right now. Thank you!
