Shelter and veterinary care for street animals

Das SUST-Tierwaisenhospital Beirut gibt Strassentieren in Not seit dem 1. Januar 2023 eine zweite Chance. Kranke und verletzte Streuner werden hier kostenlos und professionell behandelt, operiert und aufgepäppelt. Neben den Notfällen wird kastriert, damit die Zahl der Strassentiere in der Region tierfreundlich und nachhaltig sinkt.

Hunde und Katzen, aber auch andere Tierarten finden hier Zuflucht. Betrieben wird das Hospital von der libanesischen Tierschutzorganisation BETA (Beirut for the Ethical Treatment of Animals). Die SUST finanziert es und übernimmt Tierarzt, Medikamente, Therapien und Pflege.

The situation on the ground

Tierschutz in einem Land in der Krise

Unzählige Hunde und Katzen leben auf den Strassen in und um Beirut. Täglich werden Tiere ausgesetzt, verletzen sich, verunglücken oder erkranken, und die meisten sterben ohne Hilfe, weil Passanten die Kosten für den Tierarzt fürchten. Die übrigen Tiere vermehren sich unkontrolliert.

Krieg und Krise machen die Arbeit im Libanon schwieriger. Das Team im Hospital hilft trotzdem jeden Tag weiter und nimmt auch Tiere auf, die aus dem Kriegsgebiet gerettet wurden.
