Animal Shelter Support

How shelter animals are helped

During the time animals have to spend in an animal shelter, they are entitled to appropriate accommodation (if possible), veterinary care and professional care. Simple wishes, the fulfilment of which is often complex and expensive.
 
The reorganization work of the SUST supports many different animal shelters and animal welfare projects at home and abroad and contributes to the fulfilment of these factors. In this way, serious and independent animal welfare organisations can grow out of needy associations, which in the future can help countless animals to a species-appropriate accommodation and a new, good home. In order to optimize an animal shelter and to bring it on the way of the professional animal assistance, usually years of cooperation and company are necessary.
 
This support can have many different faces: sometimes the experts of the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation organise a complete rebuilding of an animal shelter, they provide first aid for animals, train experts and carry out castration and aid campaigns.

In dialogue with the animal welfare activists concerned, the restructuring of animal shelters, advice on setting up and managing animal welfare projects and the further training of experts are addressed.
 
The area of the pillar "shelter support" includes
 
- Carrying out of work days in Swiss animal shelters
- Implementation of weeks in foreign animal shelters
- structural change/supplementation of animal shelter facilities
- Reorganization of animal shelter processes
- Coordination and financing of craftsmen's and construction work
- Supply of animal feed
- Delivery of animal shelter equipment (each year 80 - 100 tons of animal utensils leave the SUST warehouse)
- Supply of building materials
- Financing of feed and other material
- Provision of emergency and direct help
- Management of the SUST-material collection action
 
In many cases, SUST provides direct aid without any third party ever knowing about it. Emergency scenarios and plans are set up in no time at all, experts are dispatched and assistance operations are carried out - in emergencies, the organisation provides fast, unbureaucratic and discreet help. When shelters need help, the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation is there for them.
 
The activities of the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation are financed exclusively by donations and legacies (no public support).

February 2024

Recently, a rather special animal found its way to our animal orphan hospital in Galati, Romania. Namely a unicorn! You don't believe it? Then take a closer
take a closer look!
The poor thing was probably separated from her herd at some point and then chased by stray dogs. Because she was unable to flee so quickly due to an older injury to one of her claws, she would certainly have soon become prey. We wanted to spare her this fate, which is why she is now with us. She has been warmly welcomed by everyone and our other goat "Bebelusa" is delighted to finally no longer be the only lady in the herd with a chin beard!
With a one-off donation of CHF 100, the starting sponsor Sharon S. has contributed to the costs incurred to properly register, vaccinate, worm and treat our "unicorn" against ectoparasites. Part of the amount also covered the extra portion of hay that the black beauty is currently eating to get a little more weight on her ribs.
As a thank you, the starting sponsor received a nice certificate and was also allowed to think of a suitable name for her starting sponsored animal.
