Animals Adoption (Re-home) Programme
|
One of TSPCA’s 6 key strategies in dealing with stray animals is the Adoption and Re-homing Programme. Its prime objective is as follows:
- Conduct a survey of the stray animal population in the big cities to create baseline data.
- For efficient management, the stray animal shelter providers are to be organized into groups on the condition that:
- TSPCA’s regular distribution of food, medicine and other necessities donated by the public to the groups registered with TSPCA.
- Development of cooperation with animal clinics to provide medical treatment to stray animals especially those listed with TSPCA.
- Development of relationship and cooperation with veterinary students of various universities to act as TSPCA’s volunteers to support the launch of mobile clinics.
- Organizing Capacity Building for stray animal shelter providers so that they are fully equipped with knowledge and basic technical know – how on proper care of animals.
- Expansion of animal care shelters to cover other parts of the country i.e., tourist centres and industrial cities.
- Organizing “ Mobile Clinics” to provide animal care service i.e., vaccination, neutering etc. to various communities.
- Coordination with various local and international animal organizations for better management of stray animals on the streets of Thailand’s major cities.
- Acting as a centre of claims on animals and coordinating with those rescue and relief organizations to alleviate the suffering of animals.
- Organising an adoption and re-homing for stray animals.
- Acting as a centre of a “ HELPING HAND” to receive donations, i.e., food, medicine, animal accessories including financial support for distribution to stray animals under TSPCA’s care.
