Neutering campaigns

Slowing down the animal misery: SUST is tackling it sustainably

Hundreds of thousands of street dogs and cats fight for survival in many countries, countless of them are trapped and many of them vegetate in terrible conditions, while new unwanted offspring are constantly being born. The suffering of unwelcome dogs and cats is endless in many countries.
Neutering is the only way to reduce the overpopulation of street animals in a long-term and animal-friendly way. Thousands of dogs, cats and other animals have already been operated on by the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation in various countries. This measure has prevented countless unwanted offspring from being born. Such actions have a future: no more emaciated mothers on the streets, no more famine and no more sexually transmitted diseases, in which the animals die miserably.

If the number of street animals is reduced, no more cruelty to animals will be tackled: no more poisoning, no more slaughtered animals, no more shooting. In this way the animal misery is slowed down, slowly but steadily and sustainably.

The area of the pillar "neutering campaigns" includes:

- Collaboration with veterinarians all over Switzerland for cat neutering campaigns
- takeover of the neutering costs of stocks from farms and feral groups
- Rental of cat and dog traps
- Brochure "Cat neutering = active animal protection
- informing the population about this topic by posters and leaflets
- Discussions with authorities and politicians
- Training and further training of specialized personnel for the execution of neutering campaigns
- Implementation of neutering weeks in various countries by SUST teams
- Financing of neutering campaigns in different countries

The activities of the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation are financed exclusively by donations and legacies (no public support).

Donate for the spay/neuter campaigns of the Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation
These many operations are very effective, but cost a lot of money and therefore we need your help and support: Give hope and instead of the usual gifts, give one (or more) animal (s) the hope for a better life! A neutering gives an animal many advantages and does no longer contribute to the overpopulation of unwanted animals.

SUST-Einsatz im städtischen Tierheim Tiflis

Juni 2015

Im städtischen Tierheim in Tiflis sind 4 Tierärzte, 2 Tierpfleger und 45 Hundefänger (+ 8 Schlangenfänger) teilzeit-angestellt. Täglich werden (neben verschiedenen Tierrettungsaktionen) zwischen 5 und 15 Hunde in der Stadt eingefangen (aufgrund von Anrufen aus der Bevölkerung) und ins städtische Tierheim gebracht. Das Ziel ist es, die Hunde zu untersuchen, zu kastrieren und später (mit einer Ohrmarke versehen) wieder dort frei zu lassen, wo sie eingefangen wurden. Mit diesem Plan ist Tiflis auf einem guten Weg zur Lösung des Strassenhundeproblems: Je mehr Kastrationen durchgeführt werden, desto besser. Im Rahmen des Einsatzes der Susy Utzinger Stiftung für Tierschutz in Tiflis arbeitet unser Team in diesem Tierheim für zwei Tage: Gemeinsam mit den Tierheim-Tierärzten kastrieren Dr. Jeffrey Young and Dr. Petra Míčková Hündinnen und trainieren die Heim-Tierärzte, mit der Tierheimleitung erarbeitet Utzinger Susy Optimierungen für die Haltung der Tiere. Wir danken der leitenden Tierärztin der Universität Tiflis, Dr. Mariam Chkhikvishvili (Homeless Pets Help Organization) und Tinatin Chavchanidze von Animal Rights Committee of Georgia für ihre wertvolle Unterstützung unseres Einsatzes in Tiflis und für ihre grossartige Tierschutz-Arbeit.
