Help animals

Emergency aid

How animal lifes are saved

Those animals that are not yet able to benefit from the effects of the sustainable SUST development work and have been born into a world where they are not wanted need immediate help.

SUST offers immediate assistance through:

Emergency aid

SUST Emergency help is done by

  • Animal rescue operations
  • Social work in Switzerland
  • Financing of all livestock rescue services of the Swiss Large Animal Rescue Service
  • Laying hens actions (switching of "out-of-date" laying hens)
  • Organisation, implementation and/or financing of emergency plans and operations
  • Work horse treatments
  • First aid and veterinary interventions

 
and through the

SUST Orphan Animal Hospitals (SUST)

In many countries countless abandoned animals live on the streets. Many of these dogs and cats have been abandoned or have already been born as strays. Life on the street is dangerous and full of privation. Injured and sick animals usually have no chance of surviving and die mostly painfully and alone on the street. In such cases, there is often not a lack of willingness to help animal-loving people, but a lack of financial means to have street animals treated by a veterinarian.
 
To help these animals in need, the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation set up the SUST Orphan Animal Hospitals.
 
There are currently one of these institutions in
 

 
Ever since its opening, animals that have been injured or ill are admitted daily to the SUST Orphan Animal Hospitals, where they are cared for and treated professionally. If the animals are healthy and strong enough to survive on the streets after their recovery, they will be released back to their territory. Special patients with special needs will be accommodated in animal shelters if possible. Fortunately, it is also possible to find new life places for patients on an ongoing basis.
 
The Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation finances the veterinary costs, clinic equipment, medicines, operations, therapies, food and care in the animal orphan hospitals. Often, SUST also finances the construction of the corresponding clinic.
 
The activities of the Susy Utzinger Foundation for Animal Welfare are financed exclusively by donations and legacies (no public support).

Neutering project in Moreni, Romania

December 2022

Happy 1000!
Excellent news from our neutering project in Moreni, Romania.
The 1000th cat out, neutered for free in Moreni - heralds a new era!
This sweet kitty showed up one day in the yard of our clinic.
It looks like she was a runaway, but so far no one has responded to our call.
Fortunately, Dr. Malina and project manager Anda decided to neuter her. It turned out that she had ovarian cysts about to burst, which would have caused serious health problems.
Thank you for helping 1000 cats with your donations in Moreni this year, and preventing the suffering of thousands more.
Project Manager Anda: "Especially as winter arrives in Romania, we are warmed by the thought that so many cats and kittens are spared from suffering.
Thank you for your generosity to our mission!
Have a wonderful holiday season!" ...from the Moreni Neutering Project, Romania....
