Spay / neuter campaigns Switzerland

neutering feral cats -
no more killing of unwanted kittens

In many Swiss regions live feral cats, which belong to nobody and give birth twice a year. Normally these kittens become feral and nobody cares about them - in the end such cat colonies are killed with often cruel methods.
It is therefore not enough simply to feed such cat colonies or individual feral cats - real animal welfare is to catch feral cats, have them neutered and then (if possible) release them back into their familiar environment (and continue to care for them).

The Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation supports active animal lovers who want to castrate homeless cats.

Our work of the pillar "Spay / neuter campaigns Switzerland" contains:
- Cooperation with veterinarians throughout Switzerland for cat neutering campaigns
- Assumption of neutering costs for farm colonies and feral groups
- Rental of cat and dog traps
- Brochure "Cat castrations = active animal protection"
- Educating the population about this topic through posters and flyers
- Feed donations for feral colonies and farms

Killing cats instead of castrating them: Still a burning issue in Switzerland as well

Whoever believes that there is animal misery due to overpopulation only in foreign countries, is tremendously wrong. On many farms in Switzerland cats find enough food and reproduce unhindered thanks to these favourable conditions. The timely neutering of the animals is often neglected because it is too cumbersome and expensive. If the population gets out of control (which is very fast with unneutered cats), surplus animals are often "eliminated" in a not exactly humane way.

That there is another way is proven by the many farmers who are convinced of the advantages of a controlled cat population on their farm and have their animals neutered by us. In this way, several hundred cats can be spared from unwanted offspring in cooperation with volunteers and veterinarians throughout Switzerland.

These castration campaigns are financed by donations. Please help us to prevent animal suffering before it occurs!
