Spay / neuter campaigns Switzerland

neutering feral cats -
no more killing of unwanted kittens

In many Swiss regions live feral cats, which belong to nobody and give birth twice a year. Normally these kittens become feral and nobody cares about them - in the end such cat colonies are killed with often cruel methods.
It is therefore not enough simply to feed such cat colonies or individual feral cats - real animal welfare is to catch feral cats, have them neutered and then (if possible) release them back into their familiar environment (and continue to care for them).

The Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation supports active animal lovers who want to castrate homeless cats.

Our work of the pillar "Spay / neuter campaigns Switzerland" contains:
- Cooperation with veterinarians throughout Switzerland for cat neutering campaigns
- Assumption of neutering costs for farm colonies and feral groups
- Rental of cat and dog traps
- Brochure "Cat castrations = active animal protection"
- Educating the population about this topic through posters and flyers
- Feed donations for feral colonies and farms

Neutering campaign in the Sense district FR

January 2025

Solution: 17 cats
17 cats that have not (yet) been neutered and would have continued to multiply over the coming months and years.
17 cats that were born somewhere on a farm in the canton of Fribourg and for which no one ever took much interest. 17 cats whose kittens would have been born unplanned and who in turn would have produced offspring. Offspring who would have been just as hungry and who would have left at some point and settled elsewhere. Offspring of which only a percentage would have survived.
The rest would most likely have died somewhere, unnoticed, from an illness or injury because nobody felt responsible for them.
‘Would have’ and “would have”, because that is now a thing of the past. Thanks to a neutering campaign in cooperation with CatCare Sensebezirk and PyanaVet the velvet paws on this farm will no longer multiply and will no longer contribute to cat misery in Switzerland.
Please support our neutering campaigns so that we can prevent unwanted kittens from being born again this year (only to die far too early and in agony) - thank you very much
