Slowing down the animal misery: SUST is tackling it sustainably

Hundreds of thousands of street dogs and cats fight for survival in many countries, countless of them are trapped and many of them vegetate in terrible conditions, while new unwanted offspring are constantly being born. The suffering of unwelcome dogs and cats is endless in many countries.
Neutering is the only way to reduce the overpopulation of street animals in a long-term and animal-friendly way. Thousands of dogs, cats and other animals have already been operated on by the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation in various countries. This measure has prevented countless unwanted offspring from being born. Such actions have a future: no more emaciated mothers on the streets, no more famine and no more sexually transmitted diseases, in which the animals die miserably.
 
If the number of street animals is reduced, no more cruelty to animals will be tackled: no more poisoning, no more slaughtered animals, no more shooting. In this way the animal misery is slowed down, slowly but steadily and sustainably.
 
The area of the pillar "neutering campaigns" includes:
 
- Collaboration with veterinarians all over Switzerland for cat neutering campaigns
- takeover of the neutering costs of stocks from farms and feral groups
- Rental of cat and dog traps
- Brochure "Cat neutering = active animal protection
- informing the population about this topic by posters and leaflets
- Discussions with authorities and politicians
- Training and further training of specialized personnel for the execution of neutering campaigns
- Implementation of neutering weeks in various countries by SUST teams
- Financing of neutering campaigns in different countries
 
The activities of the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation are financed exclusively by donations and legacies (no public support).
 
Donate for the spay/neuter campaigns of the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation
These many operations are very effective, but cost a lot of money and therefore we need your help and support: Give hope and instead of the usual gifts, give one (or more) animal (s) the hope for a better life! A neutering gives an animal many advantages and does no longer contribute to the overpopulation of unwanted animals.

Beginning of summer!

June 2023

The calendrical summer begins with the summer solstice on June 21, 2023.
We have put together tips for you and your dog on how to get COOL through the summer:
1. move the longer walks to the morning and evening hours.
2. allow your dog in between a cooling in a body of water
     (Do not overdo it, otherwise you risk water intoxication!)
3. on particularly hot days, carry drinking water with you so that your dog does not drink from puddles (danger of leptospirosis!).
4. longer bike rides are taboo in summer temperatures!
     (unless your dog is riding in a bike basket).
5. remember that hot asphalt is painful for the paws of your dog and can lead to burns!
     and can lead to burns! If it feels hot to your skin, then it is for his as well.
6. never leave your dog waiting in the car when the sun is shining! Already
     From 15 degrees outside temperature there is acute danger to life! Even slightly open windows can not provide sufficient cooling inside the car.
