Sterilisation is one of the most important aspects of animal welfare, which is why we prioritise allocating funds to this cause. An ongoing project that we are able to quietly fund thanks to a very generous anonymous donor is that of Change For The Better FDN ‘s mass sterilisation initiative 🩶 We were able to pay for another 22 sterilisations today (last slide).

We received some snaps from Change for the Better of the best part of steri days - happy reunions between pets and their people! Every sterilisation is a mark of a responsible owner, a healthier long-term outlook for a pet, and a step towards reducing the burden of animal overpopulation. When you attend our events, share our posts, and donate to us, this is what you’re supporting - a better life for animals 🩶🐾
