Sterilisations
This is such a critical activity to help the animals from continuous breeding cycles and unwanted litters. Our volunteers collect animals from various villages and drive them to the clinic for surgery.

book sales
We receive donated good quality used books which we onsell to generate income. We sell books at suitable locations. We regularly need to manage this revenue stream.

foster
We do not have a traditional shelter to keep strays. We rely on the kindness of the community to house and care for strays until we have found a forever home.

fundraise
Fundraising is vital to our existence as we do not receive Govt funding. The more money we raise, the more animals we help. There are various ways to help – reach more to find out how.

admin support
We are always busy with various projects. Please ask us to put your name on our register if you are unable to do field work but want to help with admin.

marketing
If you have a flair for, or inexperience in marketing, we would love to have ideas on broadening our marketing and community reach.
What Drives Us
Our Mission
