What we do

Spay, neuter, vaccinate and heal 

Since 2023, we have been holding regular spay & neuter clinics in Hikkaduwa, South Sri Lanka. Working with a dedicated local vet team, our clinics provide free care to low-income families, as well as community and street dogs and cats. Every animal that comes through our clinic receives life-changing spay & neuter surgery, a rabies vaccination, and any necessary veterinary treatment.

Thanks to our incredible on-the-ground employee in Hikkaduwa, we can also respond to emergencies. Every day, we treat dogs suffering from skin conditions, run a feeding program that provides over 1,500 meals a month to street dogs, and monitor the local dog and cat population. We collaborate closely with other animal welfare workers in the area and actively promote animal welfare within local communities.

One of our core missions is to create change. That’s why we regularly travel to Sri Lanka to hold pop-up spay & neuter clinics in areas that other charities don’t reach. Working hands-on with these dogs and cats has been an incredible experience, allowing us to gain valuable knowledge and make a direct impact.

We also research remote areas of Sri Lanka to identify where help is needed most. Every penny raised for our charity goes directly to helping the animals—we are entirely volunteer-run, and we personally fund all our travel expenses. No money is taken for salaries, ensuring that all donations go straight to the dogs and cats who need it most.

It is still quite unusual for Sri Lankan people to use dog collars. Lots of them use wires, chains, cables, ropes, even barbered wire. You see lots of dogs with terrible wounds from those 'collars' sometimes wires ingrown deep into their tissues. We started to donate nicely fitting collars to local dog owners to protect their pets from the terrible fate. We also equip street dogs with HI-VIS collars to protect them in the night from traffic. 

If you have any spare collars, please donate them to us. 

One of our key goals is to promote animal welfare within local communities. We are currently developing our own education program, working with hotels and schools in Sri Lanka to raise awareness about animal welfare. Our aim is to empower them to set up their own initiatives, teaching them how to fundraise for neutering and vaccination programs for dogs.
