• Name: Nyangata Center Clinic: Cat Sterilization Clinic (spay and neuter)
• Purpose

Animal hoarding can be seen anywhere in the country. It is said that half of the cats in local animal protection centers are brought from animal hoarding. This is a social problem arisen from aging, poverty, isolation and ignorance. Social welfare, animal welfare and owners are facing serious trouble; how to deal with excessive number of cats.    

To prevent reproduction, we need to do sterilization surgeries for cats at the same time. However, an animal hospital can receive two to three cats a day, not dozens. Now, we need a new place where cats can be received and treated as many as possible together at a low price.    

Nyangata Center Clinic: Cat Sterilization Clinic (spay and neuter)

The first facility in Japan in a local government, not only for outdoor cats but also for house cats.

Background of animal hording is too complicated for a single party to handle, but when everyone concerned, including public and private sectors, works hand-in-hand, we can find a solution. The Nyangata Center Clinic will be the important place where vet do surgeries at local government’s facility with a help of volunteer staff. If we can do sterilization at once, the number of cats taken to the Animal Protection Center will be reduced. As a result, cats in the center receive more intensive care to be healthier and find new homes, instead of putting down. What we are looking for is reducing the number of unhappy cats in the truest sense.

We hope this project become a role model to change the situation for better future; no cats suffer.
