Alarm level red in the Kulmbach animal shelter: dog flood overwhelmed animal rights activists!

The location is dramatic in the Kulmbach animal shelter: six puppies and four young dogs, all Husky mixers, were recently given there after a private breeder voluntarily published the animals due to her overwhelming. The Kulmbach animal protection association is therefore faced with an increase in so-called animal hoarding cases that have increased significantly in recent years. These shocking events are also in the current statistics of the German Animal Welfare Association, where in 2023 115 such cases were already recorded with 6,691 affected animals - a record value, such as the Franconian day reports .

The animal shelter director reports that despite the takeover of the huskys, the financial burdens increase, since there are high costs for accommodation, medical treatments such as dental renovations and operations. The reaction to attacks from other regions such as the Kronach or Coburg district is becoming increasingly difficult and leads to frequent inquiries for help to be rejected. In view of this overload, the possibilities of the shelter are extremely limited, which significantly endangered animal welfare. The fact that the costs for the accommodation of the Husky mixers are not reimbursed further increases the critical situation, since the aid organization cannot expand its capacities.

public support urgently required

In order to continue to cover the castration costs overgrown domestic cats and thus counteract an overpopulation, the Kulmbach animal protection association is dependent on the public willingness to donate. This was highlighted by Kulmbach animal shelter because the financial means are limited. Many citizens report concerns of overgrown cats, but support in the form of castrations is increasingly becoming a financial burden. It is a desperate appeal that every cent counts to maintain the important work in animal welfare.

This appeal for support follows a trend that has been recognizable in the region in recent years, where the emergency of animals is becoming increasingly urgent. The animal shelter manager was concerned that the number of animals that need to be included in the shelter continues to rise without adequate help and that animal rights activists fighting for the health and well -being of the animals are increasingly reaching their limits.
