SUST-OAH Galati

Shelter and veterinary care for stray animals in Galati, Romania

The SUST orphan animal hospital (OAH) Galati gives stray animals in need a second chance: Sick and injured strays are treated here free of charge and professionally, operated and nursed back to health. In addition to emergency cases, castrations are also carried out on a daily basis: Thus, the overpopulation of street animals in this region is limited in an animal-friendly and sustainable way.

An estimated 10,000 - 12,000 dogs and countless cats live on the streets in the huge Romanian industrial city of Galati. Every day many of them are abandoned, injured, have accidents and/or fall ill - most of them die miserably without help. Nobody cares about these animals. (Passers-by usually do not take such animals in distress to the vet for fear of the high costs) The remaining animals multiply uncontrollably and provide for numerous, unfortunately unwanted offspring.

In the orphan animal hospitals of the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation, street animals find refuge and help! Accidentally injured and sick animals receive veterinary care here, and spay and neutering for dogs and cats are also carried out on an ongoing basis. The Susy Utzinger Foundation organizes and finances the Orphan Animal Hospital in Galati and covers the veterinary costs, finances medicines, operations, therapies and care.
In addition to the free spay programm and treatments of street animals, SUST is also intensively committed to a sustainable solution of the animal welfare problems on site on other levels: Education and training of professionals, optimization of animal shelters, information and education of the population and promotion of the placement of homeless animals directly in the country.

This huge ball of fur came to our clinic from the city of Braila.

His owner, an elderly woman, had not seen him for days. When he reappeared, he had an abscess on his face and a high fever due to the infection. Fortunately, a nice woman nearby, an old OAH client, offered to bring him to us.

The first days he didn't even want to look at us, poor fuzzy! But after treatment, a free neutering and full recovery, he made friends, especially with our veterinary nurse who specializes in cats. Even though his facial expression seems to say otherwise, he was delighted to be in her presence.

Thank you to everyone who supports our OAH projects! He had a place to get well and receive free medical care because of your help.
