They have so little and give so much

Short rest before the hard work continues

Every day, all the year round, the people at the shelter takes care of 200-250 cows, bulls and buffalos; feeding, cleaning, giving nursing care of the animals. The staff has dedicated their lives to giving these animals a second chance, some of them giving up successful careers to spend all their time looking after the welfare of the animals.

The animals are abandoned, injured, sick or rescued from ritual offerings.

Apart from the cattle there are around 100 cats and 150-200 dogs, just to mention some of the species living at the shelter. The shelter also works to reduce the stray dog population by their catch-neuter-return program.

vspca.org is a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO). To conduct their business the shelter is dependent on donations for medication, food and maintenance of the facility. So why not give the animals in Visakhaptnam a christmas gift? vspca.org/donate/
